Had a distinguished collegue (from the Bell Lab days) say to me recently:
“IDEs take up a lot of RAM on my machine. Vim takes up a lot of squishy RAM in my head. I need squishy RAM to hold info relevant to problem solving, not options available in my tool chain.”

Vim doesn’t take any thought for me, it’s all muscle memory.

While I agree with the sentiment, the key bindings have been burned into my less squishy ROM at this point, and I’ve got all banks of squishy RAM available 😄
