Emacs belongs to the age when choice (and freedom, and democracy and brotherhood and ...) are an unqualified good. A 500-page gnus manual used to be the height of cuteness -- kittens, milk and all. Not so post https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Paradox_of_Choice > So many ways to fail :) Combinatorially increases with choices... Mostly spurious ones. JFTR: Ive been using emacs for 20+ years. And I have the increasing feeling that my students are getting fedup with it (and me). Used Idle for my last python course without too much grief. If only it were an option for 25 programming languages, and org-mode and unicode/devanagari/tex input and.
