I tried Qbs and immediately recognised it had even bigger
potential for automating project definitions except... it discourages
doing that (see for example this
<https://bugreports.qt.io/browse/QBS-1119> and quite a few other
instances where such approach is discouraged). I honestly do not
understand why. What does it bring me to type out the same thing over
and over again? You would not do it in your code. You would make a
method or class or at least a loop. Yet for some reason I am supposed to
do that with project files...
Be assured that nobody want to discourage you from doing anything. If
you have any specific use case in mind, please comment on the bug reports.
We are reluctant though to implement heaps of special features that are
useful for only one person. That's how qmake became what it is today.

That's an impressive showcase containing some interesting ideas!
If that's really flexible enough for all kinds of projects is
questionable though.
