You explicitly called it an IDE.

They didn't say that. Anyone without sever learning difficulties should be as productive in vim as any text editor in a few days at most, it just takes years to master because it's capable of so much.

I called it an editor that I made into an IDE. It operates no different than the most powerful IDEs available for the languages listed.

Now you're just being rude.
