The reason I say those words is that when given the opportunity to choose what plugins you want, you don't install all the same things as an IDE comes with because you don't need all of it. Sure, an IDE with enough "off" switches would achieve the same effect, but that doesn't happen a whole lot I'm aware that text editors with plugins have more overhead than an IDE, but at least in my experience, I don't need enough plugins to make the plugins take as big of a toll as everything that comes with a text editor. I should have been more clear about this in my original comment
