Emacs is more like a car from a Mad Max film than it is an F1 racer: each instance of Emacs has been so heavily modified (often in haphazard, kitbash fashion) that it's only ever supposed to be driven by one person: its owner.

Some of us want a car that is intimately adapted to how and where we drive.

Some of us want a car that any of our relatives can just jump in and use.

Both goals make sense.
