Hm... developers which never touches the terminal?! Seems like a

Not really. At a previous workplace, we used two different IDEs for the
two programming languages we needed to work with, and wrote GUI apps to
handle whatever we might otherwise need a terminal to handle.
It is your age, and there has been nothing gradual about it.. Look the world has moved a lot in the last 30 years, and we have gone past the point where current developers are humouring us old folk for making jokes about IDE-operators. It is not a joke as much as a "wow those people are pathetic" in the same way when we were younger and wondered why "old" people still wore double polyester flare bottom pants in the late 1980's.
The world has moved on... and Fedora is moving with it. I realize that a lot of us grognards have been trying to keep Fedora the Unix of 1987 when X11 was cool and NNTP was the way things got communicated. However its not going to happen.. and we either are going to have to get out of the way of the steamroller or get rolled over it.
