Reliability != stability (in this context).
I can reliably ssh into pretty much any server and use default vim. I cannot rely on a given plugin to be installed on the server. The more you customize vim, the less universal your knowledge of vim becomes. It's not a big deal to learn some plugins, but it is worth bringing up if people are talking about the ubiquity of it.
