To me the interesting part is not having to do precise mouse movements.

With vim bindings it’s easier to do things like rewriting arguments in a function, without having to carefully select them with a cursor or using ctrl+shift+Right arrow the right amount of times.

The speed I find it’s only a plus when having to work with old/sluggish machines, because it breaks my flow way less, but that’s completely personal preference.
