User friendly is what most users find it easy to use.
Your argument is more on the lines that you are a legacy user who does't want to move.
The whole idea of using vim/emacs was when intellisense/autocomplete was in its infancy. And programming general required using typing skills as a autocomplete mechanism. The only real use of all that edit-commands-as-a-mini-language philosophy of vim is to write keyboard macros. Which again was needed because people lacked decent autocomplete features. Besides typing fast itself isn't connected to coding productivity these days.
- prmoustache 4y agoSee my previous comment. LSP/intellisense support is available on vim/neovim and many other editors. It is not like it is an exclusivity to vscode. Also many people actually configure their vscode to use vim-like keyboard bindings because they actually like the separation of the different modes. Macros, substitutions and search commands are useful for many things and an editor like vim/neovim/emacs is not only used for code. Nobody ever talked about typing fast.
