So then what makes vim special? From what I understand it’s just a “standard” for shortcuts to features that can be shared between different editors, right?

The special thing about vim are the different modes. In a editor which does not support modal editing, you can’t bind a letter key directly to a function, or else you can’t type that letter any more.
