Maybe it's just me, but the majority of programmers I've worked with don't even know how to quit vim, let alone use it for programming. I wonder if the demographic who completed the survey accurately represents all the people who use Rust, or only those most passionate about the language. It's also possible that ~30% of Rust programmers do actually use vim (and friends) and represent a different group of programmers than the ones I've worked with (who use more traditional programming languages).

Nothing against vim of course. vim is a great editor.
