This makes sense if you don't use vim as an IDE, but if you do, configurations and plugins are essential. Of course, you wouldn't expect to have a fully configured jetbrains IDE when you SSH into a remote server, but that doesn't mean you can't use one on your local development machine.

I am pretty sure that was edited in after my comment, but it could just be a reading fail.
