But, alas, it often does take more work, and often a lot more. It's gotten better lately with things like (use-package...) but the old yarn about a user's .emacs file being like a lightsaber that you have to make yourself, no one else can use it, takes a long time, and requires constant attentions and many failures to get even close to usable is no less true now than it has been since its inception. Email is HTML now, emacs isn't great at it. Use the right tool.
