I'm off two minds. On the one side, there is far too much reliance on black box libraries to do trivial things.
On the other, this complaint is decades old. Back in the late 80s there was a software developer for the apple iigs called FTA, which stood for Free Tools Association. They claimed that the tools in the os were too slow and you should code to the raw hardware.
