It is also a very powerful text editor for situations where you have 
massive log files and the like. I tend to use BBEdit (and even that the 
free version) but I do not have the higher end needs that vi serves MUCH 
better... but I realize it does.

It is sorta like LibreOffice and Word... LibreOffice works great for 
many things but Word is for "bigger" tasks. Or maybe even moreso -- GIMP 
and Photoshop. GIMP is wonderful but it is simply not a replacement for 
Photoshop.

In this case the open source solution, vi, is the solution for "bigger" 
text editing tasks.
