Personally, I feel having a choice and favoring one particular editor isn't good as it takes away the option of adjustment with every environment.
Personally, I like Atom and that's my favorite text editor due to the formatting and otherwise impressing controls.
However, I've used a ton of other software like Notepad++, Sublime Text, vim for console and other web file manager text editor. TBH I'm quite okay with all of them, as they all fulfill the basic purpose of editing the code.
Now when I'm on mobile, the option of all of those text editors is gone. At that time, the only option of editing text is via the console and that's when vim comes to my aid. My school's PC doesn't support Atom and Sublime Text due to framework reasons, and that's where Notepad++ is the ideal assistant. For my home PC it's Atom and Sublime. When a particular memory-consuming process is running on my PC due to which Atom lags, the Web Panel file Managers are the best choice.
What the desktop text editors do is to provide additional comfort. Of course, expecting vim to autofill variable and function names for you is no more than a dream. Similarly, that doesn't happen in a text editor of your Web Panel's file manager. But does that mean they're not worthy to be used. Definitely not, they all fulfill the basic function of letting you edit text quite well. It's not acceptable to complain that they can't autofill predefined information for you and so you can't use them.
Thus my point is having favorites is okay but too much favoritism isn't good. We should be able to adjust with what's available at a particular place and should be able to still fulfill our objective. That's what versatility is.
