Coming from a background of using emacs & vi, I actually feel the exact same way about Eclipse, IntelliJ, Atom, SublimeText & all the like. It's odd to me to have such painful extensibility & so few tools to let me actually automate tasks, and so many layers of complexity to get in my way.

I feel that engineers who don't try out emacs & vi really are missing out on some amazingly powerful tooling (more so emacs than vi — but vi lives within a Unix shell in much the same way that emacs's text-editing capabilities live within emacs-the-OS).
