Lol I like your writing. The amount of headless boxes I work on has definitely contributed to my desire to get proficient at vim. Now I feel confident when I have to edit some text on a server, rather than hoping the server has nano and the file isn't too big.

And that 3 days was how long it took until I was moving faster in neovim than vscode after 4 years of use. Though it's still perfectly valid to use vim motions in any editor you want. Theres a reason most every editor has vim motions.
