The problem is that people will and do argue vehemently against your choice if you even mention what editor you use, as if it affects them personally. I thank you for being one of the people confident and secure enough to not care, but sadly, not everyone is like you. And at some point you have to say "Enough! This is why I made my choice. This is what I believe. Deal with it." Sometimes you have to defend yourself. Not against you, personally, richardlblair, but against people much more annoying and persistent than you. You are exactly and completely correct, but not everyone has the provenance to be so well balanced, particularly on the Greater Internet.
