Perhaps, but doesn't choosing not to do so also increase the likelihood that you will be less effective about figuring out what a better solution looks like that is minimally disruptive to production?
I mean if you're skilled enough to do without those tools great =)...
my point is, if you dont flag bad code and fix it during code review because "it's workable when you have the right tools", then that code isn't going to improve, and it will slowly accrue technical debt for which the IDE will no longer be an adequate solution.
but, yes, this is me being idealistic. i get that this probably wont happen much in practice.
