Absolute nonsense. Do people talk shit about hammers because some people keep hitting their hands with them? Do people complain about how useless ladders are, as one of the single most dangerous items in any household?
I don't think we should be putting these tools in the hands of junior devs - as the studies show, it hinders their productivity and learning. But to generally claim that they are bad tools with no upsides is just as ridiculous as the strawman you set up.
