Whether or not that price is reasonable is not dependant on how often I use the tool, it depends on how much value I gain. If the tool is a tiny improvement to my life vs a free editor, then I will only pay a tiny amount to use it. With sublime I don't see anything it offers to make my life better/easier at all compared to say, notepad++. So why would I pay $70 for it?

How much value do you expect for $70?

$70 worth? It is pretty hard to put into words, but if I am paying $70 for an editor, it needs to be $70 better than the free options. As far as I can tell, sublime is $0 better.
