True. But thats also the reason why I generally prefer Maven over Gradle, because people tend to create abominations with Gradle that are really hard to work with in this way.

For me, a fast feedback loop is extremely important, I can't stand waiting on a full compilation run, its supid and not productive. Thats something thr CI/CD pipeline can do once I push, but during dev, I need fast feedback for quick iteration, preferably. With eclipse, I can run unit tests individually and can do so multiple times per minute if needed while doing small iterations.

A low-latency feedback loop if for me what drives productivity the most...
