It certainly is very impressive for a beginner. For regular use it's too much. Overkill. MS Word and other so-called office products seem to offer options to decimate the menu bar, to set it up for the recent task.

Code folding is certainly good for those folks who can't remember where in the text a key word is written. Then they just search for it. Since I remember I can scroll to that region. (In GNU Emacs this memory is less important, because one always can [set a mark and] start an incremental search without having to leave the text area and go into a search window or form. So there is no interrupt. Similarly with search&replace. This working mode is more TeX like, which also mixes text and commands.)

Experience is what you get when you don't get what you want.
