Weird. As a developer I haven't found Apple to be thumbing their nose at me.

Many of their features are genuinely useful for my development e.g. TouchBar.

Genuinely curious: how have you found TouchBar useful for development? I think you're the first dev I've seen say that.
Because I can fully customise it using something like BetterTouchTool.

And so in IntelliJ I have custom buttons for executing common commands. I never remembered what each function key does in each app so it's useful for me.

Maybe it's useful because its position is ideal to emulate the missing function keys.
I'd rather have my escape key back.
