A few weeks ago I was editing someone else's file, produced by SW.  It
was a terrible mess.  Maybe the author just couldn't use it...

And if you use LaTeX proper (as opposed to tools which just export
LaTeX - be it SW, LyX or even Org-mode), you potentially have much more
control over your document.

And using a good editor removes much of the "hassle" of the syntax.
(Even though I have a great deal of warm feelings towards TeXworks, I
use Emacs personally; in my opinion, a general-purpose editor is better
than a specialized one like TeXworks.  Hopefully I won't get expelled
from this mailing list for that opinion;)...)
