This isn't normal. This is just using a tool that sucks. Those who consider this normal are just masochists.
Rust, elm, etc. have great error messages. That took a lot of time and effort to achieve. The fact that it is impossible to implement a C++ compiler that produces good error message is just proof about how broken the language is. The fact that some people find this normal is just Stockholm syndrom at work.
