Counterpoint: Vim has existed for decades and does not use a bloated React rendering pipeline, and doesn't corrupt everything when it gets resized, and is much more full featured from a UI standpoint than Claude Code which is a textbox, and hits 60fps without breaking a sweat unlike Claude Code which drops frames constantly when typing small amounts of text.

Yes, I'm sure it's possible to do better with customized C, but vim took a lot longer to write. And again, fullscreen apps aren't the same as what Claude Code is doing, which is erasing and re-rendering much more than a single screenful of text.
