I can understand that, having experienced the same before.
I just re-read my message and I regret the way it comes off -- my intention in writing it wasn't to be critical of you, but to explore the issue of how inconvenient parser tools are perceived as being, and try to analyze why that is.
"Insanity" was meant to refer to the overall situation, and not you personally! I might re-word this a bit.
I still think that we ought to be in a position where the tool is so easy and so valuable that it is a no-brainer. And I think this largely indicates that there is a long way for the tools to improve.
