Seen a few ways but all seem to be with deprecated/abandoned methods or tools

Honestly your best bet probably is to use Latex instead of word when possible and use Overleaf with vim bindings (however, these bindings aren't the best in the world). Of course, if you're working with others using Latex is probably a deal breaker.

I am, and it is, everybody else uses GDocs and I hoped to be able to use Vim on all the shared files somehow

Yeah, unfortunately vim is really for text editing, so if you're not doing that (writing a Google Doc is not text editing), you aren't going to see vim bindings/extensions supported/available in those cases.

The best you can hope for is to do something like here (not sure if it still works), but then you defeat the point of using Google Docs.
