I am not sure about tooling. Do you consider SBT part of tooling? In that case I do not understand how can you say best. SBT is good enough at its finest.

IDEs, editors, SBT, ScalaFmt, Mima, WartRemover, etc.

Yeah, build tools are usually terrible. Being "good enough" is enough for SBT to beat the other ones though.

(Best incremental compilation, fast artifact resolution, reliable dependency management, versioning support, fastest to-Android compilation, broadest plugin support, interactive REPL and project console ...)
