Why doesn't Eclipse community stand-up more to IntelliJ?

What a curious perspective. Lots of people like IntelliJ better than Eclipse, so they must be succumbing to "group-think?"

Why don't people try to defend and improve Pepsi?

Funny, and I always found it rather annoying that the examples in the Android documentation give instructions for Eclipse and not IntelliJ.

--resist strong urge to speak ill of both products-- god, that is a very difficult temptation to resist :(
