Unless we're talking about ancient versions of C++, those productivity advantages of Objective-C are mostly a myth which I have yet to see any argumentation for.
The whole point is moot though, because Swift is the future. It's quite amusing seeing the Objective-C community trying to reconcile their irrational love of the language with the reality that Apple communicated - it's a disadvantage for the platform, keeping developers away with its unusual syntax, lack of safety and overcomplicated paradigms.

Remember that what IB did was build the UI using the actual elements, so you could play with it even without the logic hooked up, serialized that entire object tree, and then deserialized it at runtime.
