I honestly don't get software engineers who don't know basic vim motions and don't even care to learn them. Seriously? They plan never to use `less` and `more`, they won't be reading manpages, they are okay with not knowing what `sed` can do?

I get why people prefer not to use it actively - everyone has their own preference, but choosing to not to know it, at all? Knowing basics of vim for a programmer is like understanding basics of git. It is a must.
