For code, you’re probably right it isn’t all that great. But as text editor on the Mac it can do anything.

As far as flexibility goes, I'd be very surprised if anything can touch Emacs.

Yeah I get all these platitudes and stuff but I have used it and it doesn't seem more flexible than emacs here.

It's not. But it's more friendly to non emacs-programmers.
