  No other text editor has as many developers working on
  plugins than VIM. Virtually anything that exists in
  another text editor which isn’t mouse driven has some 
  very popular, very supported, very documented plugin 
  you can use.
And the Vim equivalent of org mode is what again? I'm a Steve Litt fan, but Vim Outliner isn't even in the same league as org mode.

As a Vim user of many years I still believe it to be superior to emacs when it comes to editing text. That said, emacs is a vastly superior programming environment. And like many people I find org mode to be indispensible.

Happily, these things aren't either/or situations. I still use Vim for quick text editing tasks, but for other matters evil+org mode lets me have the best of both worlds.
