I think this has been mentioned already in this thread, the question is
what relevant information does the editor someone used 20+ years ago
give, especially considering that the "other" field is a text field.
The best I can think of would be an interesting infographic visualising
trends between how long someone has been using Emacs and what they used
prior to that.
