Vim ain't sufficiently complicated (that can arguably be seen as a good thing). That's why it's been mostly reimplemented in Emacs.



Vim has vimscript (ugh) with a lua and python gaining popularity so emacs sort of got it right IMO anyways.


Neovim's main goal seems to be replacing vimscript with lua in a backwards-compatible way.
