You said

Even somewhat professional run projects don't have people build from
whatever IDE they happen to have installed at the time, but instead 
build(and deploy) their artifacts in a reproducible and controlled 
environment.

You are putting words into my mouth.

I'm not arguing against build systems (plural) ... point me to the place 
where I argue against build systems in general.

I'm arguing against your assertion that using an IDE to build your 
system is not professional and yes, running Ant scripts from within an 
IDE is very common, I'm surprised you haven't heard of it.

That's what an IDE is, it's an 'Integrated' Development  Environment.

Fascinating.
