Anchor based editing requires injecting new anchors to the context, and dirac does so via a diff. So how is this more efficient (token-wise) than search and replace?? Even at a single token per hash. Also, code is read more than written so these just add up. I experimented once with stable anchors, albeit longer than a single token, and found it a downgrade.
My conclusion is that the efficiency dirac sees comes mainly from showing file skeleton by default
