IMHO, for a simple reason: Tech support and learning curve. WP has an
edge over all the other editors: 800 free line. No matter what 
kind of a problem you run into, there is a human person to help
you. Best feature, ever.

Sprint seems to be a great editor. vi probably is, even though it has
a rather unique or peculiar set-up, so is Emacs. The biggest problems
with these editors is their biggest asset: hard learning curve, no
context-sensitive help, and above all, no menu. Fast and dirty.

Not for every one.

Eventually, all the editors will have more or less the same
features. Tech support will be the cutting edge.
