Well, it does. It requires to use a template to solve
the usability problem.

> if there is tooling support

As I already wrote, I prefer to not rely on this 
tooling support. I don't want to be forced to use a
specific feature of the IDE (templates). I want to
use the most logical solution to the problem 
(copy & paste).

> rethink "how" one works

Do you tell me that developers should not use copy &
paste? I'm sure most developers use copy & paste as
well. They don't bother creating a template. And even
if you document it nicely, they wont. That doesn't
mean it shouldn't be documented.

> error-prone programming patterns

Copy & paste is 'usually' not error prone. It is 
only error prone because copy & paste doesn't do 
what I expect - in this case - and I don't get an
error message or warning. And that's the problem.
