Why oh why Craig Dennis must you torture us?

Thanks again for responding to my earlier question/accusation on the Java Custom Serialization video, but I have another one for you. Why oh why is this course not taught using an IDE. When I was learning to write Python on my own I quickly fell in love with Pycharm as it made the learning process much smoother. I understand that because an IDE does so much for you it could actually prevent you from learning certain things but I am beginning to think its worth the risk. After getting frustrated with the Java Track earlier I decided to jump over and take a look at the Android Development Track. WOW...I am learning Java at a MUCH faster pace there and I think it is in large part to the IDE. Using an IDE acts sort of like a teacher in a real classroom. When I make an error it calls me on it before I finish writing an entire code block full of errors and then compile and have to go back through everything I just wrote sorting out the errors. Not only does it call you on the errors but can offer solutions. I know I am preaching to the choir and you are well aware of how IDE's work but what I am finding most useful is that they suggest possible solutions. It sorta throws you a bone which makes it much easier to work through figuring out the code "on your own" albeit with a bit of a crutch which in my opinion is much better than my current default of getting frustrated, looking up the answer online and then trying to understand why its the answer and basically learning in reverse. I personally will be going back over much of the Java Track and rather than follow along in the workspace provided by treehouse I am going to try and write in Eclipse and see if that does not return the same results that writing in Android Studio is producing. Once again I recognize that I do not represent all users. Maybe the majority of people can memorize everything said in the videos and apply it but for me the IDE is invaluable!
