It is very different in one way. An editor is a tool you start
with. It should be convenient for everyone. Beginners may face
a high complexity and different terms (and keyboard shortcuts)
for rather familiar commands makes it much more difficult.The
difference might seem small, but since it raises complexity for
beginners it waists time for them.
Kill/yank comes to mind as obvious example. The copy/cut/paste
terminology is pretty much standard, so the various kill/yank
operations (kill-region, copy-region-as-kill, etc.) should
be mapped to these terms.
