Do you have so few arguments for qbs that you need to appeal to emotions? :)

Sure you can write toolable build files with qbs, but there is nothing
stopping you writing an unparsable JS mess either.

For QML we needed to define a toolable subset of the language with the UI
files to have any chance at tooling it. For the qbs dialect of QML that has
not been done yet. So I do not consider qbs to be toolable at this point.

Best regards,
Tobias
