I think you mean:

yes (the environmental angle is a complete distraction and red herring from moving towards more sustainable energy production generally; the ethical one is just plain nonsense spread by people with absolutely no idea how these things work)

yes (people use and like them, people have fun with them and create great art with them. You might not but that's a you problem)

and ... well actually probably no tbh (but that's a problem with capitalism not technology).

Stop making shit up to dismiss new technology because you're a luddite

Because you're used to it. No other reason

Okay... because you refuse to actually look at whether there are better options than the absolute trash you are using because you are used to it

Ugh, I swear vi and it's derivatives are the absolute worse text editors going. There may have been reasons thirty or forty years ago, but now it's just complexity and a weird ui for the sake of it

Because it makes a complete mockery of history, because it means they're clearly completely incapable of learning anything in a reasonable timeframe (what were you doing for the last two hundred years? picking your toes???), because it means they cannot possible think like the humans playing them as they work on a totally different timescale, because elf culture would have to either be completely alien or stuck in the bronze age, and finally because it just rubs me the wrong way!

Speaking for the rest of the world: That's some freaky cult shit right there!
