I will acknowledge that and I do think it sucks. Even when learning kotlin, what bothered me the most was the IDE and the other tedious tools needed (maven, gradle, etc.). Why can't I have something like rustup that just gets the newest kotlinc for me? So I think it's a valid point you're making although I was able to get used to the ecosystem over time.
