I feel this review is overly harsh. I felt the author was showing that many of the packages were not intuitive and were often buggy. He was showing me what I could expect when I might try them. When one expects one's users to RTFM, they've already lost.

Even properly using the debugger in purposefully less obtuse interfaces like Visual Studio is non-trivial and generally requires the assistance of walkthroughs, manuals, and colleagues/instructors.
