     I remember 30 years ago, there was an admin in my lab advocating 
for vi. I tried to find a manual and couldn't find one. Several time I 
watched the guy editing some files and was impressed by how painfull it 
was to him to change a single character in a text. I have been using 
emacs and emacs-like editors for 33 years I think. Of course I don't ask 
to have emacs installed by default (it is huge), nor even a small emacs 
clone, such as mg. If there's always vim-tiny, why are people asking to 
remove nano? If the gurus use vim and dislike nano, since they are 
gurus, they can change the default themselves and leave the ordinary 
people with a limited but usable editor.
