Who's we? The great thing about text files is that they're editor agnostic. If there already exists 1000 editors that work, should that really be stopping me from making the 1001st that works for me better?
Also I disagree with the idea that teams should use the same editor. I, for example, hate vscode, so if I join your team, I'm stuck either using a less productive editor, or re-creating the launch configs and save actions in my editor. To me it seems like a failure on the editor's part to separate concerns---a code editor should edit code. If it compiles or launches the code, it should do so using an external program, e.g. make, where all the launch configs can go in the Makefile, and not in some editor specific file.
