Nothing of the sort.

It's a tool; some people like to use it, others don't. I used to use it
a lot, now I hardly ever do.

[In case you're wondering why, I've realized that since you've got to
write code anyway, the few extra lines to create and pack Widgets by
hand is far exceeding by the tight coupling between your sources
and .glade files, with the result that refactorings frequently break;
better to have the UI code all in one place. But that's just me]

People do get the most mysterious notions.
