Vim AND Emacs? is not redundant? I wold say, do you ssh of work on different machines often? go for vim (neovim for me); if not then chose between Vim and Emacs, it'll take a while to get used and configure them exactly to your needs, usually your .vimrc (the vim config file) will follow you for a lifetime. To me Vim is like a nice iron cast pan, a Zippo lighter of a good fountain pen. I've tried Emacs but is not my style, but I've heard the same about it. You never stop polish them.
