- It ships by default with org-mode/calc/games and another thousand
  things that are not normally in one text editor, who told you it was
  shipping as an editor?

- the time consumed is not yours anyway and for many people is very
  useful. The fact that all the other IDE stinks is of course a plus ;)

- of course, switching back and forth on different programs is veeeeeery
  productive ;)
