In complete agreement with you! Let me acknowledge
that
it is one of those times that I feel embarrased. Hope
you do not frighten me further. :-)

However, apart from that I did thought that vi was

not!

That's what I thought i.e. vi points to vim until I 
discovered it now. It, in fact, points to 'elvis'.
Though I have now made vi to point to vim!
