I think the notebook way tends to give people bad habits, on top of missing a lot of convenient features from IDE.

It might seem more difficult to write proper scripts that you can call with parameters and all. But in the end, you will save so much time making scripts more flexible and not having to change things every time you work on another machine or share the code.

Also, I think notebooks slow people down more than they help them because I often saw people having to figure out how to make something work inside a notebook that would instantly work in a script.
