"Why X is better than Y" would be too clean-cut for my case, but it's not far off.
I wanted to start learning lisp and was told emacs was the best choice for it. I read that Richard Stallman made it and Linus Torvalds uses it. That was enough to get me started and it's now my editor of choice.
But that's not to say that I don't know how to edit, save, search and (force) quit vi. :)
