Because Emacs made it.

It will, as a side effect, save 1G in RAM.
These stats prove the hype, not that it is good quality code, with good quality documentation, with a friendly and safe community, and a reliable archiving system for it's dependencies.
I have nothing against JS in particular, but there is a bit too much hype about it.
If we pretend the contrary, we really have to question ourselves.
So in theory a well unit-tested spaghetti-code would make you more relaxed because it would assert that spaghetti A interacts with spaghetti B in the C way.
And don't forget that vermicelli should be used in soup, not with bolognese.
Now the question is: will you be able not to write soup code?
For me saying programming is tied to maths mostly is not a good thing: you'll be a better programmer if you studied linguistics, art, sociology and gender studies around your math classes.
Historically, programing has mostly been teached to science students but as we are currently talking about it, it will change maybe.

Note: I tried Sublime for approximately one year and don't use it anymore.
I started to learn emacs in 2006 after a friend show it to me in it's no-window version in a OS X Teminal. We were at the time art students and most of us didn't have programing education. Some people were playing a bit of advanced flash or Max (proprietary Pure Data sound processing), but most of us were doing performing art, sculpture, sound or painting.
Honestly, I have been so motivated by what I discovered, that, the learning curve hasn't been so bad. The folkloric keyboard shortcuts were easy to memorize and the software never failed me. I stopped using Text Edit and the horrible .rtf format and I learned that plaintext was surely more appropriate to write poetry. And wait what is it? Markdown?
I started to open mp3s in text mode and grep into videos. It was really exciting. It was possible to open incredibly huge files in text mode, and the computer was still usable. Wait... Why common browsers slow the machine down when you try to open Gmail then?
I discovered a land of wonder full of funny animals, meaningful laws texts (I mean GNU license) and documentation to read until the end of your life.
In 2008 I ordered GNU Emacs Manual 16th edition with a tee shirt, the reference card is still on my desk.
This piece of software is usable, accessible, documented, and it is still possible to use it 30 years after it's creation. Let's be honest: what is the aim of having a fast-learning-curve if you learn tools that you won't use in 2 years. If the tool is a bit hard to learn but we'll designed, it maybe worth the effort.

I call this a malware
What seems to happen here is the "pay-for-everything-you-will-access" paradigm, and it is frightening.
Part 1 gives you a reasonnable understanding of the issue. Part 2 include practical advices.
And is it possible to "burnout" of something else than work?
