I get that emacs and org-mode work for you, and probably a lot more people here on this website than elsewhere.
And if that works for you, great!
But, I'd wager that Silver Bullet (or Obsidian, Logseq, etc) is a far better tool for 95% of people (for the purpose of organizing ones class notes, book reviews, recipes, first drafts of articles/papers, self-directed learning, personal notes of meetings, diaries and journals, etm).
Cross-platform (including phone) is probably a must-have for many. Immediate ease of use and lack of time spent not only learning, but configuring, is also important. A GUI following normal-people expected conventions, likewise.
The overwhelming majority of people aren't programmers, and will never use emacs for anything. What emacs is good at is not what they need.
