Easy to implement:
On 1331 "Easy" to use, Neil must have had his tongue in cheek, just ignore the thousands of lines of Scite which is just a "test editor", but not easy to write a lexer for a language which was what we are talking about.
1074 is one persons opinion, not gospel truth, only my opinion is gospel truth
"Worse is better" says the user experience is poor to simplify implementation, but I would argue the implementation difficulty of writing lexers in C++ results in a better user experience due to the speed, try opening a big HTML in Geany and in gedit (which uses regex syntax highlighting). But certainly the lexer development experience is worse if you are not a C++ist.
