Honestly I switched to Inkscape more and more. Especially for logos.

ironically i find inkscape vastly more intimidating than gimp, inkscape's interface is barely comprehensible at all whereas gimp is just slightly clunky.

It took me only 20 years to convince myself to Inkscape more. But it's worth it. 😅

For occasional paths, I agree with you, but when you really start needing deeper vector work, you either get pushed into inkscale or you end up brute forcing it.
