I'm a full-time Vim user who has never taken to `bindkey -v`. The reason is simple: I'm using insert mode 99% of the time, so using vi keybindings just makes me have to hit an extra key.
However, it is useful some of the time. Since viins is pretty useless by default, you can spice it up by setting custom bindings (e.g. copy emacs') and get the best of both worlds.

- JulianWasTaken 14y ago`bindkey -v` puts you in insert mode by default (there's a way to make it not do that, but the default is insert first). So there's not really an extra key, you get both benefits :).
- dbbolton 14y agoI meant that you have to hit an extra key to actually make use of the mode's default bindings.
