> general usability? emacs is as usable as you make it.

Lol, I have to remember this line... "yeah, this house has no bathroom, but you can build one yourself that it's as good as it gets!"

It’s not a correct analogy though. In case of Emacs the house has a bathroom for you, a sauna for your whole family, separate bathrooms for your cat and your dog and at least one bathroom for an extraterrestrial entity that breathes helium. And yeah, in case you’re not satisfied with that amount of bathrooms you can build up your own after some training.
