Even unix die-hards can see the benefits. I stuck to using vim for years and years until I ventured in learning some new languages and explored VSCode. Then I started working with Java and found IntelliJ. The gains when the IDE is actively working with you to autocomplete/point out errors/warnings/code formatting etc are undeniable. Recently I copied a Python script from Linux side to VSCode - the window basically lit up with suggetions/warnings about unused imports etc etc - and this is when the script was working fine in Linux. Cleaning up the code was super easy too. In case it is not obvious, I love *nix and I'm totally for modern IDEs.

PS: I'm aware that a lot of these can be achieved by vim plugins/formatters etc - I do use some. But I can't be pursued to code Java in vim vs IntelliJ; its just not the same.
