I think much of the usefulness of syntax highlighting is a matter of having gotten used to a specific editor. Long time Visual Studio user, I tried VSCode and Jetbrains but for C# I switched back to good old VS. I know the pattern, the cadence, by now. Much like QWERTY keyboards, I'm not learning DVORAK now, my workflow is fine this way. Tried F#, but I'm sticking with C#. It's not that I believe the rational arguments don't hold up, I do see possibilities for productivity gain with each. But there's the retraining curve and that also factors in for me
Yes
