Every single person that I've met that is a huge fan of Emacs has also had a tendency to get stuck in the technical aspects of things rather than seeing the bigger (non-technical) picture. This isn't meant as flame bait, I genuinely mean that these people have all been very intelligent, but they have all shared this peculiar quirk of absolutely over-engineering things to the point where it's kind of amusing. Your comment made me think that this is exactly how that kind of person would approach baking.
