I have to agree.
After over 20 years of very happily using vim and other vi-clones, I'm in the process of making emacs+evil my main editor.
Making the switch is slow and painful for this veteran vim user who has perfected his vim environment, but I can already see that the emacs environment that I build will be superior... eventually.
Plus, I get the joy of scripting my editor in elisp and eventually guile (I hope). No more vimscript for me!
That said, vim is a wonderful editor. Even if vim ultimately isn't as flexible as emacs, it's still incredibly powerful; and there's a lot of cross-fertilization going on between the two editors, with vim users getting inspired by emacs features and packages and writing vim equivalents and vice-versa.
