All it uses is a bit of flash space. There's nothing wasted really. It will even fit into a PIC chip! Some of us actually like and use the built-in editor, often because the workflow is so good. On an error the cursor is automatically on the line where the error occurred, something that no external editor can do. There is virtually no learning curve. Almost all the commands are function keys in the menu along the bottom of the screen. If that's too difficult there is an excellent write-up on how to use it in the manual. TOTALLY agree. I use MMEDIT to develop all the code, but I use the internal editor to squish bugs. It is really quick and easy to find and squish bugs using the internal editor, then test that the code works correctly, then I just copy the changes in the MMEDIT window, and move on to the next thing. A very sexy feature, that internal editor, and it was one of the main selling points for the first of the Micromite chips - that you did not NEED a big IDE, you could write and edit your programs directly on the chip!
