The complaint of developers "being reliant on stack traces" tone sounds an awful lot like: "real programmers just use punch cards and ignore any tooling we've come up with in the last 70 years: just use your brain"
I speak in hyperbole here. I only point out the giants whos shoulders we stand on left us fantastic tools to use.
There is something to the philosophy of keeping your interface 'dark' such that you learn to 'shine'. But that's something I ascribe to a personal development journey.
