If other developers feel this way as well, I find this rather surprising, since I remember comments about the 3DS noting how much easier it was to develop for than the DS was toolchain wise.
I guess I could be hallucinating about those comments though since they're hard to google.

One developer working on a key AAA franchise port told us anonymously that the Nintendo toolchain is "fighting us every step of the way", suggesting that plenty of work still needs to be done in getting development workflow up to scratch. Will the tools improve in time? Will publishers have the time and the financial incentive to stick with it?
