    I learned vim (technically vi) because it was the only editor available on these tiny liveusbs I would use for work. It was literally my only option. Once I got used to the motions, using any text editor without vim motions felt unusable to me.

      Same for emacs. At this point my emacs keybindings feel more intuitive to me than the standard keybinds like Ctrl+C/-V to copy and paste (in emacs its Meta + W to copy and CTRL + Y to paste (Yank))
