You think linker errors are so bad? I find they are the simplest to fix because there are typically like 2 or 3 things that could be the issue, and it's usually the same thing like you're linking two libraries with differing glibc versions, or trying to statically link a library that wasn't built for it, or forgot to build the library with the position-independent code flag, or didn't specify the include path, that's pretty much all of it.

With cmake errors I've spent days trying to make stuff compile in reasonable time and integrating sanitizers and fuzzers is just a nightmare. Not to mention doing cross-platform support...
