@chfkch@ruhr.social @b0rk@social.jvns.ca Brittle in terms of: everything is extremely specific to that environment. One tiny imperceptible change between environments is all it takes for things to fall apart in unpredictable and hard to debug ways at unpredictable times. One environment may have different things setup from before that conflicts with the other. Sure you could have everything set up in a reproducible environment, but now your solution is no longer general across environments which is what we really want.

@chfkch@ruhr.social @b0rk@social.jvns.ca Sharp edged in terms of: different programs fighting for the same shortcuts which have different ways to set preferences which are stored in different places. Not to mention that an editor shouldn’t also impose other tools be required on an environment to have a good workflow. Forcing users into that imposition smacks of "You're holding the phone wrong" from the iPhone 4 days.
