I do not like about VIM that it has some very irritating habits,
like *deleting* the text to change in a "c" command before you type!
There are some other points where VIM seems to differ deliberately
from vi's behaviour. Perhaps some of this can be configured, but
when I use vi it is partly to the reason that I don't need more
configuration than "set sw=4 ai sm". (This is actually the contents
of my .exrc.)

(As an aside, I am actually an Emacs person with several thousands
of lines of Emacs configuration and customization etc.)
