This been the case for as long as I can remember, seems to have more to do with individual developers typical methodology rather than the tools available.

I remember a bunch of issues with early npm versions were resolved by deleting the node_modules directory and running `npm install` again. Sometimes it borked the directory, sometimes it didn't, deleting everything and beginning from the beginning resolved many of those issues.

You are absolutely right of course, most day to day bugs we don't have either the inclination, time or knowledge to root cause much less fix, but I feel it's a comfort to know that you (or someone) could.
