I believe digital tools are scoped like analog ones are - they are appropriate for certain types of projects.

In the same way it would be extremely hard to do say, a convincing rendition of the waldstein sonata on say, a drum kit, the digital tools are great if you want to do what they're designed to do.

This is why some people love one piece of software and hate another in some apparently random distribution, music is a huge tent and these people likely have dramatically different goals. It's like a kosher, a vegan, and a keto arguing over the best restaurant...

The problem is trying to figure out whether it's the wrong tool or whether you just haven't spent enough time learning how to use it.
