> It'd be like saying only the farmer who can do everything by hand without any tools increasing their productivity is a real one. Or an accountant refusing to use Excel/calcuators/ERPs and writing everything on paper.
You're trying to map manual work onto engineering.
And absolutely I'd rather work with accountnant who can write me on paper without Excel/calculator/ERP his logic.
It's like you're being obtuse just for the sake of the argument. Someone who can clearly express themselves without specific medium, be it paper, IDE or whatever is strictly superior to someone who is tied to one specific medium.
When one of the mediums actively helps and avoids small human errors, I'd prefer the person knowing using it instead of sticking an old and imperfect method out of pride.
> How does it actively helps and avoids small human errors in reasoning.
Because reasoning is only a part of everything to be done. An IDE can help with typos, best practices ( global variables, lack of error checking, etc) which are tedious things that take time. Isn't it better to the things that matter instead?
