I compared the up-down key work with emacs against another popular editor, and the bad news for the other editor is that it costs 10% more up-down keyboard manipulation to do the same open-edit-close file work.

The difference was, where emacs used modifiers around a keystroke, the other editor used a few discrete keystrokes in series to get its work done; which is totally okay. It just used more.

So, this trolling is funny, but it's not the worst offender. Nope, not naming the other one, or the Mafia will what-about me to death.

Ask me about RAM usage next!
