Emacs doesn't lend itself well to running on machines you've never logged into before, or ephemeral machines/containers/etc. It's not a tiny sleek thing that you can start anywhere and have the same experience (that's nano or vi), but if you let your local Emacs eldritch horror reach out with its noodly appendage to whatever you're trying to edit, you'll have a much better experience.
