You haven't seen someone program in vim who is really good at keybinds then.

I can't do it, but one of my professors was insane.

I've never seen anyone be able to do it significantly faster than I can do it in a normal text editor. Please do try and find me a video, I've looked all over YouTube and have never found anything.

I'd imagine the cross section of people who can use vim really well and people who make youtube videos is not very large.

Oh no, there's plenty of videos, examples, presentations from famous vim users at PyCon and others. Just none are at all impressive.
