Obviously it's not good to only have one editor, if there already exists one that can already do everything the other editors can. Since you say there is an editor that can already do everything, what could the reason be that people use the other editors?

Different UIs and the fact that Photoshop which imo does everything all the others do, isn't free.

My point was to get you to realize that features in an editor aren't everything. People care about other aspects, such as the UI, price, speed, and the company behind it. I personally care about the fact that GIMP is open source, Photoshop is $700, Adobe still pushes Flash, despite HTML 5 being the future, etc.

Mechanics and skill > medium. A great artist can make an amazing piece using elephant dung if he wanted to I'm sure.

I read a great article in an art mag I frequent about how a guy switched to all open source programs and his stuff is still AMAZING. Photoshop is just much more efficient and powerful, therefore easier to use.

Sure you can do many wonderful and amazing things on open source programs.
But sometimes you need to have another editor, to fix/add something that you want.
Since the editor you have doesn't have.You need to find another. ones again. hmm
You see, suddenly you have 3 editors. It can be quite annoying sometimes.
