Read the title again, friend. It says "minimalist tools for writers" and not "dinosaur environment for coders".
Emacs is _not_ easy, neither is xemacs nor any other derivative of it. I don't claim vi is easier, but it is more minimalistic. And no, there is no convention that one _have_ to mention emacs when one talks about vi so the article is in itself very complete also without any word on emacs. As a matter of fact it would have contradicted its own title.<nobr> <wbr></nobr>:-)
