> "brand identity tied to fonts" sounds like more of a problem related to your company culture/ego of the marketing team than a shortcoming of the tool.

I mean, first, I'm not so egotistical as to claim tacit knowledge of domains that aren't mine. Corp Comms and Marketing deserve to work with good tools, the same as engineers do.

Second, I can't imagine a marketing person coming to me and forcing me to use a different IDE that didn't permit debugging because of their personal preferences.

I would (rightfully) chew them out for being so arrogant to have an opinion on what is useful for my work.
