I've had syntax highlighting enabled in Vim for many years without really thinking about it. I just recently started to learn a new programming language (Go) and that got me thinking about the effects of syntax highlighting. I felt that colours would distract me from efficiently learning the syntax of the language so I turned it off for a while, now I'm never going back. (I really do like having another color on just comments though, code > comments. Separating them makes a big difference when reading source code for me.) Ended up having to create a Vim color scheme to get what I wanted: https://github.com/ggustafsson/Static-Color-Scheme https://github.com/ggustafsson/Static-Color-Scheme
