I've used Vi(m) enough to know that I'm far more efficient in an editor designed to work with my OS.
Knowing Vi (or Emacs) is essential as a software developer, but using it as your local code editor has never made sense to me.
What most people who pontificated about Vi/Emacs/editor-of-choice often fail to realize is that there isn't a "One True Way To Do Things Bestest". Everyone works differently. Using Vi for 30+ hours isn't going to make me a better developer - and it certainly isn't going to speed up anything.
