On the other hand, continuing to use something merely because you already paid money for it is a sunken costs fallacy.

Use whatever works best for you, not whatever you already paid for.

Thank you for completely overlooking any of the relevant issues I have attempted to alleviate.

This is why we can't have nice things.

Aside from the sunken cost fallacy, all you've done is link how to get partial Vi (not Vim, nor even the Ex functionality you find in stock Vi.) functionality in sublime and tell him how to use documentation. I have a feeling that anyone that has decided to switch knows about those things.

As far as I can tell he wasn't even asking for help with sublime, nor did he lay out his reasons for wanting to switch away.
