When the really indefensible thing is that you have to run
a stupid script to generate the file in the first place.
It should be edited directly, not composed from scattered
parts by a silly script. Cast your mind back to the lilo
versus grub debate - 99% of the popularity of grub was
because you didn't have to remember to run a stupid
program after making changes for those changes to
take effect.

If the syntax is too complicated for it to be edited
by mere mortals, that just says the syntax should be
a lot simpler, not that an extra tool ought to exist
to build the file from parts.
