I guess when you only write short documents like letters, there's
probably no need for all those features that come with AUCTeX.  But
that's just a guess.  No actual user told me their reasons.  But it's
likely.  It's similar writing some simple python script every so often
with just python-(ts-)mode and without elpy.
