Editing is one of the single most important "transferable life skills" a person can cultivate.

to navigate and type fast is the difference between being an amateur and a master.
Please Note: I am not suggesting that advanced Vim skills are a prerequisite for achieving mastery in "creative technology". Nor am I implying that having Vim skills automatically makes anyone a master of any creative tech. However ... without actively pursing mastery in editing skills (in your editor of choice - which can be Vim/Emacs for Text, Davinci Resolve for Video or Blender for 3D drawing, etc.) you will not come close to excellence in your chosen field.
