Do any of us have a choice?  In today's 'minimal install by default' secure world?

When there is only vi you must be capable to use it. But that's do no means that a sysadmin must use always use vi to do editing.

It seems to me that you are telling that if you don't *always* use vi to do editing you cannot be a proficient sysadmin. That's not true. Beeing not a vi fan and a proficient enough sysadmin I know enough of vi to be capable to edit files when only vi is present, but I don't need and don't want to use vi in the other cases where I can use an editor I like better.

All your examples of vi unaware sysadmins difficulties do not apply. You must be aware of vi, and we need to text that in LPI. But for this a weight 1 is correct, 3 is excessive.

As we are discussing, this seems to me more and more a rite of passage. And not in the sense of a common knowledge shared by people, but like an initiation to be part of the sect of the "vi only editing" sysadmin.
