1. Org mode - I will admit that I'm not a fan of org mode and find it to be oversold and another time waster for people who are already wasting time configuring their editors. I personally use vimwiki, there is a vim plugin for org mode.

2. Magit - Tim Pope is the pope of Vim plugins and fugitive is easily as good or better than Magit. I have never had any issue doing any sort of complex task in git or fixing conflicting using fugitive.

3. Wdired - Tim Pope again has vim-vinegar to improve netrw. Never had a problem or thought about manipulating directories inside of Vim.

4. Again, if you believe in the Unix philosophy then you have to admit that Emacs is simply bloated and trying to do too much and therefore is not really the best at anything. And more importantly, if there's something that Emacs can't do you've screwed yourself because you haven't built an environment around many distinct tools on the command line and it's going to be awkward to integrate.
