the problem with all these hipster vims is that it's too late in the game, vi is everywhere you're going to be remoting into and these are only going to be on your localhost, not even off a fresh install. your muscle memory might as well carry over, same reason evil mode is the only modal extension for emacs that matters and QWERTY is the only keyboard layout for sane people
That massively depends on how often you remote into machines. It's also the same logic for using bash instead of zsh, a battle that zsh is winning - it turns out that learning one does not prevent learning both.
