I never said editing is bad. In fact, writing is all about writing, reading, and editing.

English is the third language I learned, and editing is indeed one of the ways I improved my writing.

What I meant to say is that there’s too much focus on the process and not enough on the substance. Emphasizing the latter is more important but gets less attention on HN.
