Not a flame: how do they not count?

IDE stands for "Integrated Development Environment".  I can't speak
for VI users, but Emacs has Ruby source code editing, project
management, the ability to cross-reference code symbols,
auto-completion, source templates, integrated source-level debugging
(if you want it), IRB, and the ability to run your code and tests
right from the editor.  What's missing that it fails to qualify as an
IDE?
