"Vim is, at its core, a text-editor. It's built into the Shell"

This isn't true (that Vim is built into the Shell). Vim might be in a directory contained in your PATH variable, but it's not built into the shell. (Note that I don't capitalize "shell", and I don't know why you do, but that's quibbling.)
