I don't think it makes me more efficient at writing code. Its because the act of coding is like 80% reading existing code, only rarely adding new code. You spend far more time moving around and exploring the code, and in vim the keys to do that are single keypresses, or sequences like `]p`. Every other non-modal editor requires you to hit chords like Ctrl-Shift-F to move around, because the "easy" keys are all taken up by "add this character to the buffer", 100% of the time.
