To be fair inputs in Vim can also be bound to a function call. In large parts it's just a different scripting language. After trying both for a while I'd say Emacs and Vim mainly have more very different approaches to the same goals. I never really loved Emacs but I do appreciate its better scripting language(imho) and more robust syntax highlighting.
