This matches my experience completely: more than 40 years using vi and then vim, my fingers and my brain know to do.

I've tried to use VScode, especially since people said that it could emulate vi... it can't. Some of the basics are there, but then you forget you are in a different program, and use something that works in vim... and it fails. A couple of times with catastrophic results: I lost a file completely after typing a command.

I actually repeat the experiment every year or so, but I do not see much improvement.
