Seriously, your idea here is maybe you can start an Emacs vs. vi fight in the comment threads?

No one mentioned vi, I like neovim just fine, and I'm using pi daily. Nice try though. My only point is that if you want to talk about rewriting everything yourself, NIH, churn, whatever you want to call it, Emacs is absolutely not a great example.

But you mentioned multiple variants thereof, in the context of a thread about Emacs.

It's highly disingenuous to suppose that this doesn't count.
