Whenever I've tries emulate-vi modes they tend to lack some coner case 
known to my fingers.

[... Doom Emacs recommendation - I have no opinion ...]

A novice of the temple once approached the Chief Priest with a question.

  "Master, does Emacs have the Buddha nature?" the novice asked.

  The Chief Priest had been in the temple for many years and could be relied
  upon to know these things.  He thought for several minutes before replying.

  "I don't see why not.  It's got bloody well everything else."

  With that, the Chief Priest went to lunch.  The novice suddenly achieved
enlightenment, several years later.

Commentary:

        His Master is kind,
        Answering his FAQ quickly,
        With thought and sarcasm.
