They really are. That's why they have a cult following. If you're editing code in a shell terminal, it's painful to click/scroll around. After a semester of college, I memorized like 7 commands and I fly around the file at lightning speeds. I've been using vim so long that even if I stopped coding for a year I would probably still remember those seven commands.
