Well, given that all editors are cat equivalent[*], you don't _have_
to use any of their features :-)
But just like Python (particularly in the hands of a skilled Python
programmer) is more productive than a Turing Machine, any featureful
editor (in the hands of an experienced user) is far more productive
than "cat > file".
[*] A bit like Turing equivalence: any program you can write in any
other editor, you could also write with "cat > file"
