I don't get this whole need to shorten keywords to 2 letters when the IDE will just autocomplete them, it's really stupid.

  Not everyone wants to write code in an IDE. Quite a lot of people prefer a text editor of some kind.

    VSCode / Atom aren't IDE's, they are editors with lots of plugin's, like VIM and Emacs are.

  I can't stand that autocomplete. It gets in the way of actual typing. What if I want nothing in the list? What if I actually want to use the arrow keys immediately after that thing has decided to trigger? It probably also cuts down on human ability, like never taking the training wheels off. In the long run productivity might be lower.
