That's the main argument. It's the best argument. Proposing the use of
"make" in a typical Java shop will elicit the same reaction as if you
proposed the use of Ant to Haskell developers. "make" is a non-standard
tool in Java development, whereas Java IDE build systems, Ant and Maven
_are_ standard. I note the Java IDE build systems separately, because a
lot of developers don't use Ant or Maven, they just produce JARs or WARs
or EARs with their IDE.

This argument implies that it doesn't even really matter how many
problems Ant addressed viz "make" for Java builds, or how successfully
it addressed all of them, or even what extra cruft and complexity that
Ant itself now has. All that matters in 2012 is that Ant is a major
build standard for Java, and "make" isn't.
