It seems to me that your criticism is of software that leaves too much to extensions, rather than that "extension mechanisms are actively harmful".

- lmm 14y agoMy impression is that simply having an extension mechanism inevitably leads to this problem.
- jamesrcole 14y agook, but when you say: > Emacs defers to extensions for things that Vim does natively - and again, the result is those features are more usable and better integrated. Vim has an extension mechanism too. It may not be quite as flexible as Emacs, but it is much more flexible than most programs.
