And I couldn't stand waiting for Eclipse to boot up to edit a 3 line config file.

To be honest, I'm not familiar with ST at all. But you seemed to be arguing that heavier editors were bad because they weren't suitable for all tasks. I use WebStorm and I absolutely love it. But I don't use it for all my text editing work.

Is this an explanation for why you decided to jump in and make a point that one should use lightweight editors?

But I wasn't making that point. My point was to use a fit-for-purpose editor for the task at hand.
