My experience is significantly different. I find that developers who use Vim and Emacs are generally more experienced and have chosen their tools with care. They understand the importance of simplicity in design. They don't pull in large libraries arbitrarily. They commonly write more efficient code to provide the same functionality, with less bloat.

Your mileage may vary, but the best developers I've personally worked with all use Vim or Emacs.
