Troll alert!
Comment: when Bill (Joy) and I wrote ex/vi at Berkeley back in 1975/6-ish, Ken (Thompson) at first refused to let us put it in Unix V6. He thought it was too big and (as he later admitted) not 'geeky' (my word) enough. The Pascal IDE we built in/around vi never was accepted. And you should have heard the comments about emacs.
Sounds like that sort of opinion is still alive and well.
Although Ken would never have used the phrase 'X is for bitches'.
