Wow! I'm impressed guys. Yesterday I accidentally pasted 32,000 lines of
text into the text field in the Sort Lines dialog box, and it actually
worked! (after a bit of a wait) And here I was expecting it to crash or
something :)

That's pretty much the kind of thing got me started with BBEdit around 1995. I had to edit something like 46000 lines of output from a program and do some kind of colon and/or comma swapping along the way. I tried it in Word and a couple hours later it finished. I asked for ideas since this was an ongoing issue and someone suggested BBEdit. I owned BBEdit as part of a MachTen bundle, but wasn't using it very often. That was the turning point for me and I've used it regularly since then.
