okay? you've pivoted from "not understanding" vim to having an anti-vim boner. other people in the same environement achieved as much or more than me with different tools. and those different tools didn't work for me. that's all that's going on here.

for clarity i meant that I had a completion in the terminal when not in the editor to quickly jump to a tag in a file. `vim -t <keyword>`. i could be in a terminal, execute a remote command on a machine, know what I wanted to look at next and quickly go there without much effort. And again, other people were productive without doing this. these were just my tools and i liked them.
