This is an artefact of a language ecosystem that does not prioritize getting started. If you picked php/laravel with a few commands you are ahead of the days of work piping golang or node requires to get to a starting point.
I guess it depends on your business. I rarely start new professional projects, but I maintain them for 5+ years - a few pieces of production software I started are now in the double digits. Ghostty definitely aims to be in that camp of software.
