What's so great on vim for the average Joe which isn't offered by nano?

  • Teleportation: the cursor can be teleport to any line without pressing down key multiple times...

  • Macro: for repeating a sequence of inputs multiple times...

  • Tabs: nano can't open multiple files at once i believe...

  • Split screen(horizontal and vertical)

  • Themes and plugins

These are a few that comes to mind...
