Amiga by default had an Emacs clone on every install.

That's incredible. Why? And why a clone? ???
Probably because GNU Emacs was too bloated for the Amiga's 512KB of RAM (or whatever amount the original model had).
They also might have been conserving storage space. Though Emacs did run on other contemporary systems.
