"Choose whatever works for you. Interface Builder can save you so much time building some of the smaller aspects of your app (help/about screens) etc. that it's foolish in my opinion to just "do away" with IB on principle."

To be fair I never said that we were doing away with interface builder on principle. I also said that interface builder was great for smaller teams.

My main critique of interface builder is that it's not a great fit for larger cross functional teams because it makes code review difficult and it's hard to resolve merge conflicts.

These are not problems that the vast majority of app developers face. These are problems that happen on larger cross functional teams.

Their is a reason that neither Facebook, Airbnb, Pinterest nor uber use interface builder.
