Anyone can write a text editor though. It's fairly simple.

It's beyond bizarre to compare the creation of a massive company, thousands of jobs, numerous earth shattering products which enhance the lives of millions, with a text editor a few programmers use.

IMHO Stallman has been a net negative on the computer industry, and will not be remembered fondly outside the emacs niche userbase.
