One thing I never see people talk about in these comparisons is file type support. Vim has everything from hosts file to apache, nginx, sudoers, etc, etc. And for general purpose languages it is still better than things like tree-sitter. Certainly the latter has more features but it is less reliable and consistent.
After almost 20 years of vim I switched to doom emacs for development. But for sysadmin tasks I still use vim. And sometimes I miss its consistency even for GPLs.
