i think vim is doing something wrong here

bce should not make this difference and it is the only difference
between these two:

$ infocmp -x screen screen-bce
comparing screen to screen-bce.
    comparing booleans.
        bce: F:T.
    comparing numbers.
    comparing strings.

so sounds like vim is redrawing differently without bce and not
scrolling

bce is background-colour-erase and just means the terminal can erase
using the background colour rather than black

does changing vim theme make any difference? is your theme 256 or 16
colour?
