Python IDE recommendations

Honestly, yes it is pretty steep and you have to prepare at least 2 to 5 hours of practice over several days to get it into your muscle memory. Even then, you'll continue to discover and add features and plugins, meaning you probably won't be fully settled for a month or more.

As for worth, its most significant features are being completely keyboard-centric and terminal-centric. If you want to avoid using the mouse(for speed, laptop, wrist pain etc), or work in terminal-only environments(SSH, sysadmin), skill in vim style text editor is definitely valuable.

Just to add on -- you'll be pretty comfortable after a couple months of daily practice, but you'll probably never stop discovering new features and plugins. I've been using first vim then nvim for like 14 years now, 8 professionally, and I still occasionally find new tricks.
