I agree, but don't agree with you. It's not necessarily about avoiding a tool that can help, but using the tool appropriately. It's potentially a problem with many of today's younger coders that they just keep "jiggling things" to see if they work without thinking about them.

If limit the amount of "just try this" attempts, do we turn out better code? The people that build cabinets, or anything out of wood, make mistakes, and try things, but not in an unlimited fashion. They know there is a limit to how many mistakes or attempts they can make because of cost.

We don't have a material cost, but we have a time cost, and we also have a mental cost. If someone isn't taking the time to actually think more, does some limit to resources help them think more about what they do?
