While I totally agree with the "speed of editing" part, I can't imagine (well, I can, and it's awful) working on a "real" project in "real" business environment (by that I mean something that puts bread on the table, has tens of thousands to hundreds of thousands of lines of code, has a lot of legacy code and was written by a dozen of programmers over the years) without an IDE. It's not even about linting or code completion, it's about being quickly able to ctrl+click to definition, peek at definition etc. Modern IDEs are so much more than just editors of text. In the age of Microsoft beginning to incorporate machine-learning assisted autocomplete people talk about emacs here... lmao, get the fuck out of here.
