I still believe that if you are productive in an IDE like, for example, Intellij, there is no point to really go to vim. What I often recommend is that people give it a try, even if it's sublime's vintage mode or ideavim, which is pretty good out of the box (but very buggy if you get into customizing). At the end of the day, vim is another tool, and tools are there to help us be more productive. I don't work with very large projects nor do I usually do any sort of refactorings, so vim works very well in my use case, but I very much understand when people complain that vim doesn't do what they need. I run a very customized version of vim (15 plugins or so plus around 400 lines of config in total), so, as you can expect, it's very hard for me to leave it :-).
