I feel the same way when I hear griping about vim or Java. Like sure, there's surface stuff to cry about... Until you start to hear people's ideas. Then you're glad people have managed to mostly leave it alone!
I also thing there's just this class of tools that only make sense when you get to a certain level with them. Learning curves are just steep on some things. That's not the same as bad design.
