Why bother with the Emacs server when you can just make Emacs start up
as fast as Vim? ;)
Not sure if this is a serious question. But if it is, then the answer
is clear: because keeping Emacs running at all times means you keep
all the stuff that isn't saved to files, like buffers that don't visit
files (*scratch* being the most important one of them), various
history variables, etc.
