Is Latex Hard to Edit?
Yes, I do agree that LaTeX compile logs can make debugging difficult. And that's why you rely on other tools to parse the logs. Almost all the popular LaTeX editors can do this just fine. There are also standalone utilities like latexrun and pplatex that do an amazing job in formatting LaTeX error output.
