Not all of us are stuck in the cult of the editing paradigm of the 70s despite the fervent mistaken belief that it is objectively superior.
If anything, vim is the most unique editor with the most unique "paradigm" I've ever really had much experience with. Atom, Sublime and Emacs all seem pretty much the same in terms of how you interact with them.
Pretty sure saint ignucius will damn you to proprietary software hell for dissing on the One True Editor (tm).
Parent is saying that vim is a 70's paradigm and people not stuck in the past enjoy the modern paradigm that sublime follows.
