> 11 Jul 91 - When I log into my Xenix system with my 110 baud teletype, both vi and Emacs are just too damn slow. They print useless messages like, ‘C-h for help’ and ‘“foo” File is read only’. So I use the editor that doesn't waste my VALUABLE time.

This is actually true if you ask ChatGPT to simulate a Unix session, and try editing text files. You literally can't use a visual editor.
