emacs and vim are super efficient, nearly infinite in keybindings, and fully programmable and extensible.

Except not doing ctrl-c ctrl-v easily. Or standard keybidings. I wonder if an offshoot with standard keys in a terminal based on vi would work (really simple and native, I used simple mode alas it almost were transparent but not quite. )

I used to think like that but imho when you learn Vim registers it totally makes sense, plus if you're using it in a terminal emulator you can use ctrl-shift-c ctrl-shift-v. Now about Emacs I don't have much experience, but Doom-Emacs and Spacemacs use the System's clipboard by default.
