I agree about vim - it's what vi should have been :-) (and probably
would have been if enough processing power had been available back

The added benefits are so important (e.g. unlimited undo/redo) that

it shares vi's steep learning curve that has discouraged so many people.
My first direct contact with Linux was when I used telnet on OS/2 to
