I find this pretty dumbfounding considering the amount of efforts that goes into IDEA, Eclipse, Visual Studio, and X Code on a daily basis.

Also, watch how VS Code (and other text editors) are slowly turning into full blown IDE's as well.

The code we write today has never been more complex, it requires matching complex tools.

And Intellij's products come from decades-old thinking about how to manage that complexity.

They're not good enough; for many people they don't help manage complexity. They just increase the confusion.
