You could have learned enough vim to be usable in the time it took to write that comment.
It’s SO inefficient in comparison to Vim, VSCode, or tons of other alternatives.
If it’s the only thing on the box, fine, but in reality usually Vim is the only editor installed.
But I am MUCH faster and more efficient with nano than I am vi/vim/emacs. My text editor of choice is like my IDE of choice, it shouldn't be a problem at all for anyone to just accept that I'm getting my work done in a different application.
After an hour wading through the docs I found a mention of evim:

This manual is about using Vim in the normal way. There is an alternative called "evim" (easy Vim). This is still Vim, but used in a way that resembles a click-and-type editor like Notepad. It always stays in Insert mode, thus it feels very different. It is not explained in the user manual, since it should be mostly self explanatory. See |evim-keys| for details.

That's what you mean?
If you are interested they might give you a good start.
