How often do you start your editor? I start emacs once at booot and keep it running, using emacsclient to open additional files from the command line.
Look, I think that writing your own editor is useful because one learns a lot. And of course, it doesn't need to use Lisp or even be extendable at all. But it's not Emacs any longer if you remove the Lisp part.
