I've approached IDEs similarly. But in addition to this, a lot of IDEs lack real accessibility functionality. Jetbrains has accessibility features [0], but it is clear no one at Jetbrains actually uses them. This isn't unique to Jetbrains, there are a lot of companies that implement what I call "fake accessibility". There's a section in their settings to enable "accessibility", but if you actually use it and depend upon it you're met with a garbled mess.

> For macOS, switch on the VoiceOver and install and set up IntelliJ IDEA. However, for a full screen readers' support, we recommend Windows.

I've never tried the Windows version, but the VoiceOver version is unusable.
