>I'm not sure why you think they don't?

If they are they either aren't offering user/programmer access to that database, they aren't doing semantic/type binds, or aren't advertising those features well.

It's reconcilable with normal text editing, just update the structure once its valid. I agree that things like block/visual programming can be absurd.
