OK, so let’s look at your questions;
“why wouldn't you use AE for editing?”
Because it’s primary function is for digital compositing. Final Cut Pro or Premiere are dedicated editing apps.
“Can't you treat movie clips the same you would in Premiere?”
You can, but not quite as efficiently. If you have no other way to edit video, then do it in AE, discover the pitfalls for yourself and decide if the investment in a dedicated editor is worth your while.
I believe you can also do some compositing in FCP, but that’s a whole ’nother thread.
Hope this is more helpful.
