Since you were replying directly to me, I couldn’t downvote you. But your use of “newsflash” made it come across that you weren’t interested in a civil discussion. I frequently downvote comments that make a point in an unnecessarily hostile or patronizing way. I suspect others do as well. As for full IDEs, they absolutely have a place. They can even infer things about the structure of your code fairly well. I still find the productivity of being able to work deterministically and consistently with my code at a structual level a pleasure. I’d appreciate that even in an IDE, if for no other reason than that the structure editing could be done efficiently and leave me some extra system resources for other things :-)
