Genuine question: Couldn't this be accomplished by any scriptable editor?

  Yes, it's true that it can be done in any sufficiently good scriptable editor. But once you have written all those scripts to do all those magic, your editor will look more like vim. You have just built your own Vim.

    Oh. Well that makes a lot of sense. I feel like I understand Vim a ton better now.
