Almost agree with you! If the Emacs VM were used for applications other than Emacs -- if it were a general purpose VM -- then I'd completely agree.

There are lots of applications written on top of GNU Emacs, but most of the time they use the specific UI and features of an editor, or integrate with the editor.

Example: the calculator of GNU Emacs. https://www.gnu.org/software/emacs/manual/html_mono/calc.htm...
