Looking at it's geographic location, the purpose seems semi obvious:

This is basically the perfect location to provide complete air support coverage to the Persian Gulf, and also a perfect refueling stop for any longer missions running into the Red Sea/Suez shipping corridor. It's also a dead straight line shot stopover for any flights going between mainland China and Africa.

The geopolitical military and logistics benefits are very significant for China.

Sublime can do all of that as well, but it's more performant, has better shortcut keys, and IMO it has much nicer navigation for larger files (gives you a sort of eagle-eye's view of the entire document next to the scrollbar). That's all very much a personal preference thing of course.

They still have to drum up the crazies enough to grift more donations out of them.
