It can only make no sense if you believe that any statement regarding how a particular text editor compares to the text editor made available by a specific IDE is something which can be expressed objectively in absolute terms. It isn't. Taste and personal preferences are, well, personal. These are subjective opinions, which each of us holds, that reflect nothing more than our personal tastes, preferences and even habits. So, unless we believe it is a good idea to waste time discussing how a particular text editor is better or worse than any other text editor, mentioning specific text editors, and how someone uses them, is perfectly irrelevant, and we would only focus on that irrelevant detail if we had missed the point.
