Does this argument work for illustration as well? Do you prefer to write SVG using a text editor instead of using Illustrator?

[devinhalladay]

That's completely irrelevant. The non-human-readable SVG format can't translate to this topic in any respect.

[mrxd]

False. SVG is an XML format, and very much human-readable.

WTF? An Illustrator that never learned Hand Craft illustration as the core of it's art, is not an illustrator but a guy who uses tools to replace and emulate that art, same way, a Front-End must know how to code. If not is just using tools, not a bad thing, but it's just the superficial layer of the work.
