By the time you've installed and configured all that, you could've just installed PyCharm and be done with it..

Also the more plugins you install, the slower it'll get.

And I'd have an IDE which also has a bunch of plugins in order to operate, generally slow and requires a bunch of resources, less configurable, and works for python mostly. Also this configuration is like sharpening an axe. In order to excel in PyCharm you also need to memorize/customize keybindings, etc. The only difference is Vim just requires some of that work upfront.
