A great deal of the pain that Armin experienced is mostly due to the fact that Wheels are very new and aren't very polished yet. Additionally there is a vast wealth of technical debt in the packaging tools so it's quite easy to introduce these kinds of problems because of the general architecture (Something that we're trying to fix long term!).

Is there any reason to believe wheels will ever become polished, or might they simply be replaced with the next idea that comes along?

Apologies for acting the cynic, but this is the kind of uncertainty that comes when there is constant reinvention, instead of improvement of existing tools.
