I think it's 100% because you don't like Javascript. You resent having to learn it. I feel the exact same way about Git, I've never been able to stomach it, I'm bewildered as to why the entire programming community have decided it's the one VCS to rule them all, and I resent having to grok its UI. The Javascript ecosystem is huge. It's also the wild west, completely non-curated, open to anyone, and you have to treat it accordingly. It's not really one entity.

Git is amazing, beautiful piece of software. But... sigh I feel exactly how you feel about Git about Vim. It's the one editor everyone has decided despite it's arcane and bizarre UX that you aren't a real programmer if you don't know. Refuse to learn it. Absolutely refuse. I think everyone has one of those things.

  I have at least 2. Git and vim. It seems fitting then, that vim should be the default editor for git's commit messages.
