Writing custom tools is not a solution for the standard professional developer. If Ethereum is to take off, it will need one of

* Little to none "get up and running" time. Custom tools don't allow for that.

* Provide such tremendous value that it is worth overcoming the initial setup hurdle.

There are plenty of alternative tools for Ethereum, including alternative languages.

I was merely pointing out that nobody is being stopped from improving the situation, if it was as bad as some portrait it.
