My preferred workflow with Jupyter is for code to start in the notebook but to regularly move the code into Python files as soon as it works. So the code that lives in the notebook represents the "exploration frontier" of my research but the remainder of the pipeline code stays in Python files where it can be edited with an IDE, linted, tested, etc.
I also realize that English is not the author's first language but the tone of this comes off unnecessarily negative to the (mostly/entirely volunteer) developers of Jupyter.

It's a great contribution by foundations and companies to humanity that's been an enormous amount of hard work. Notebooks suck for some things, and they are absolutely fantastic for others.
