It's not. I use vim on a daily basis, but all I do with it is writing commit messages. The rest I do with an IDE or different editor. I'm surely not alone with that.

Even I switch to VSCodium when I write Go, for example, because the Go extension is just so good. I use it for medium- and large-sized projects, when I have to navigate through multiple files. There are ways to do it in Vim (I configured it), and Emacs, but sometimes it really is just easier to click since I am already using the mouse for stuff. There are people who never use their mouse, in which case I can imagine they use Emacs or Vim only.

And writing commit messages are to development in the same class as using the restroom?

Judging by the quality of most commit messages - yes.
