My main selling point is no longer feeling like you're fighting your text editor. Once it's muscle memory you focus very little on the act of editing, just on what you're writing.
With more advanced stuff like macros and substitutions, tedious reorganisation/refactoring becomes much faster.
And you can slap on IDE-like features with language servers and the like. It isn't as powerful as an IDE, but it will also be much less complex. Or use a Vim plugin for your IDE and accept the tradeoff: losing Vim features for more IDE features.
It takes a while to learn the editing model and hence get a return on your investment, so keep that in mind.
