User blog comment:JustLeafy/The editors: Advantages and Disadvantages/@comment-5558012-20170326163854

You have some serious bias against the Classic Rich-text editor (especially considering the blog attempts to show advantages/disadvantages of each) and make it seem like it's worse than it really is. It does show infoboxes (if they aren't complex) in the same way you can see the template name and parameters (editing infoboxes is basically the same between this visual editor and the VisualEditor). Moving images shows the cursor so you can get pretty close, especially considering it's a visual editor that isn't going to be as accurate as a source editor anyways (the VisualEditor misplaces images too).

Mobile editing may or not be a disadvantage (I don't really like fixing problems caused by mobile edits).

Complex coding is probably the biggest disadvantage though, to be fair, some of what the Classic Rich-text editor can't do the VisualEditor can't either (you can't visually edit poem tags for example). The VisualEditors biggest advantage is showing everything, even if you might not be able to edit it visually.

Don't take this as me being a die-hard supporter for the Classic Rich-text editor, but the VisualEditor has its own set of annoyances that need to be fixed prior to removing the older editor (one such bug affects a large number of pages simply due to header placement and page formatting, not sure if it's been fixed).
