What I like about IDE wars is that it remained a dispute between engineers. Some engineers like fancy pants IDEs and use them, some are good with vim and stick with that. No one ever assumed that Jetbrains autocomplete is going to replace me or that I am outdated for not using it - even if there might be a productivity cost associated with that choice.

Excellent point. But I do think that forcing people to use IDEs for productivity was a thing for awhile. But still agree that the current moment is a difference in kind not just in scale.
