Hear hear. I've been using Emacs since the late 70s when my int file was a compiled TECO library that other people also used.
Nowadays my init file is only a few dozen lines and when I log into some random machine (with no init file) most things simply work without surprising me.
It is highly customizable but it doesn't mean it must be customized.
