Don’t put “it” there…
One of those upvotes is likely mine:-).
Those who know…
Whatever it is, DON’T DO IT!?!
I feel like this has similarities to the trolly problem posts as well. As in there’s some kind of orange thing threatening us all there too, and we have the choice to put on our glasses or willfully not see what’s coming:-).
Absolutely. Plus the keyboard shortcuts are just outstanding - e.g. shift-M takes you to the middle of the screen - and you can even programmatically do things like make changes to every other line within the range 100-1000 but nowhere else, and even then restrict the changes to only those matching a pattern.
And it is installed on most every machine in the world - even Windows is putting bash onto things these days (I forget if that is still optional, admittedly I haven’t touched Windows in nearly a decade:-P) - and has been since virtually the dawn of computing, certainly long before the modern age. :-D I’ve used ssh on a fucking blackberry and edited files with vim before smartphones existed!
It is, however, notably hard to learn to use, I grant that:-).

Okay but… obligatory “gVim offers the best of both worlds by offering use of a mouse if you want it”. There are also native ports for Mac OSX and Windows, etc.
Vim, in contrast, is a command-line program, suited for e.g. working with a text file on a remote server that may not even be running an X-windows interface, or maybe the user simply did not bother to connect to it:-).
Okay, we may now proceed with the humorous jesting:-).
But how expensive is obesity?
Those shoes are damn worth it!
