I have a toolbox with screwdrivers, wrenches, a hammer, etc. And I have a toaster with a lever to start toasting and a knob to set the level. An appliance/application and a toolbox are different things. An appliance/application is for one purpose while a toolbox is general, used for many things. So of course modern scum invert this and use a toolbox for an application and an application for a toolbox. Source control is an application with limited needed functions, so it should not be toolbox. Programming is a general task requiring a toolbox not an application. So modern scum use Git (a toolbox) for source control and use an IDE (an application) for programming. Completely backwards, but just what one should expect from modern scum.
