The state of electronics tooling has long been extremely bad - 99% of people who put a regulator into their schematic will want an appropriate input and output capacitor as the datasheet demands. 99% of people who put a microcontroller will want a crystal and a programming port and a reset pin pull-up. It's only because of closed source tools stuck in the stone age that the state of the art is to copy out of a PDF.
And multiple people working on the same design and merging their changes? Forget about it!
It'll be very exciting if we can move towards a more modular world, where designs can be composed.
