Oh the irony of an analogy... The point of these complications is that you are able to travel farther and faster on a jumbo jet than on a bicycle and these journeys will take you to many more interesting places (once you are set up, that is).
Version control, build systems, compilated makefiles, testing frameworks, profiler sessions, deployment scripts - all that takes time to set up, but pays handsomely on all projects of non-trivial size and length.
The right thing to do is not to get rid of this "overhead" but make this setup as easy as possible.
