No, I implied vim has more uses than any one person could possibly imagine.

I also meant any question like "Why would anyone want ...?" really just
means "I can't imagine wanting ....", so if that isn't what you meant to
say you might want to rephrase your question.  I would ask why anyone
would want to say they had a limited imagination, but if I did I'd be
doing it myself!

If anyone took offense, my apologies; I meant it as a wry observation on
how people in general use language, not as anything personal.
