Yes, that is not so relevant IMHO, but then if one is asking for prior
editors, list should rather be extensive as to make it more specific.
List of text editors - Wikipedia

Those issues most relevant would be IMHO usability, accessibility,
user interface, understanding and learning Emacs and problems in using
it. There is question covering it, but is general.
