I laughed at the self-abusing "great advice", but it did work for me.
Did you start a new Vim instance after saving .vimrc?
(Let me state again, it is a bad, silly advice. The tool should be
there to help you. You shall not be treated as having to adapt to
specific tools or machines.)

Thank you for your reply. Nice that my post elicited your laughter. :-)
I see your point, and thank you for explaining this. As a beginner in
programming
I still can't decipher a good advice from a bad one. That one sounded
reasonable for those who are just starting using Vim, and this could
help them
to develop a physical habit of avoiding "easy" conventional tools, which
are
redundant and not useful in Vim.
And no, I didn't start the new instance of Vim. I just did, and, yes, it
works.
Could you, please, share what types of changes/settings are reasonable
to add to vimrc?
