I have the strong impression, including from Jessica's talk, that IDLE is
very objectionable to experienced programmers, and I would say simply that
they shouldn't use it.

To be honest, I interpreted Jessica as saying the opposite. That IDLE was
not good enough for the *beginners* in her novice class. And that one of
the barriers to entry to python in general was the lack of a good entry
level development environment.
I don't think this about professional programmers missing "advanced"
features.
