How much programmer time has been wasted by gdbs byzantine UX? In a rational world, would we collectively invest time into building extremely good debuggers? It's a tragedy of the commons, where everybody would benefit from better tooling, everybody wastes time dealing with poor tools, but nobody is willing to put time/effort/money into making better tooling.
