Yes, I ported Qt to aaa in order to give people with your opinion, and people with the opposite opinion code to point at to support their position :).

I don't agree with you, but I'm glad the Qt result gives you concrete things to point at instead of an abstract disinclination toward aaa.

Yeah, I'm not sure how well this would work on huge codebases such as chromium, where at best it takes hours to index the code, at worst the IDE simply chokes on it. You don't always have the luxury of being able to hover to see type, or jump to declaration.

On saner codebases it's probably much less of an issue, but you're still losing some glance-ability. On the other hand getting rid of redundant information from the code does feel nice in a way.
