It's fine for you to use whatever tools you want, even if they are under-powered toys. But qualitative hand-waving like 'archaic' shouldn't be confused with an objective disadvantage.
I would love to take credit for having read that prior to using the word archaic. I didn't. I formed my own opinion. I just happened to find that blog post a few minutes ago while searching on Sublime Text 2. The fact that he expresses my thoughts much more elegantly than me fills me with envy.
