VIM is pretty much written by one guy, and like Linus he remains consistent in what his creation's user experience should be. VIM is not meant to be easy to learn, it is meant to be easy to use one you've invested in learning it.
VIM is a bad default editor for that reason. But don't blame VIM for being what it is. Rather convince your distro or whatever to set nano as the default, easy to learn, editor.
