Vim is great now that I know how to use it decently enough. I guess that was mostly referring to the learning curve for becoming an efficient user.
Starting out, you work slower during the learning period but I think after a few days, vim starts to pay off. After a few months (and years I presume), the value is undeniable.

Many lost themselves in endless discussions about fast and slow and mouse and keyboard. They forget something really important: fun will always make your more productive.
I never heard this before :D this is my new favorite nonsense for vim, I definitely will quote you :D
(to be frank, it is really good on many places, but it is just a mature text editor)
The one thing I really like about Vim is that it is a zen-like experience for me. I truly become one-with-the-keyboard. The editor is out of the way — out of sight, out of mind. I never have to touch my mouse, even if I'm using a graphical Vim. Fingers on home row the whole time. It's magical. Maximum throughput, although most programming time is thinking rather than typing (but there is heavy output typing in bursts).

this is also true to me, and affect my apps preference greatly.
I abandoned many great apps because they have poor support for keyboard movement. In minimal, they has Emacs style movement (C-b, C-n), but force me to reach to keyboard to use sidebar.
Using (Neo)Vim, I am the master of refactor for my project, because like any article you’d found in the internet, programming is more reading & editing rather than writing. Vim provides convenience for reading, editing and writing. Vim(like keybinding) is good.

I can say the reverse.
Learning Vim is... fun! Stress reliever when the Jira Task «In Progress» is >3 and you've feel too much.
Having learned not to use mouse is an endless pit of dismissing actually good software because of poor keyboard support.

That's why Vim is so good. It's fun.

Vim is the gamification of coding.

On the fun angle, mandatory mention to vim-adventures.com/ :)
