Even for professional developers I am not buying this argument. I think there is an argument to be made that we actually don't know how to work with these tools effectively and repeatably yet. But as the tools improve and we figure out the processes more that may change. It might not too, but I am leaning more toward it working better when we figure out how to use it than not.
