Even if your job is beyond statistics and data processing, you're probably using R because the core of what your team is doing is statistics and or data processing. If that's the case, and if you're the computationally sophisticated member of the team, then shouldn't the onus be on you to understand/adapt to what your less "sophisticated" peers are using?

I’m not sure why you brought this up. I didn’t talk about who should do what and whether people are doing things wrong. I said R is strange and hard to read and Rstudio is bad and should be more capable.

Now, if I want to address your comment. I don’t think “this was the way things have been done here, let’s do it like that from now on” is a good approach. If there is a better way, even if it’s more complicated, at least it has to be tried and tested. If a more “sophisticated” tool proves to be useful, let it be. Not everyone in a team has to use the same set of tools, and if they see the benefit in something more “sophisticated”, they might want to try it, even if it was not explored before. People can learn, there is always a better way/tool and one tool cannot do it all.

You're entitled to your opinion. But perhaps it is more constructive to email R dev mailing list and suggest your ideas for improvement.
