This a really good point that I've realized just recently. I'd also like to add that integrating your build system with your editor can be a great productivity boost. If you watch someone like Gary Bernhardt program, you can see that good editing skills and build/test integration allows for very quick edit-build-test cycles. You can iterate fast and catch stupid mistakes early.
