They do, except for the "basic" vim:
$ apt-cache showsrc vim | awk '/ deb /{print $1}'
vim
vim-athena
vim-common
vim-dbg
vim-doc
vim-gnome
vim-gtk
vim-gui-common
vim-nox
vim-runtime
vim-tiny
Although, I can see that being harder to find if you don't have deb-src
lines in your source.list, since all the vim addon packages are named
vim-$addon.

Any package other than vim-tiny provides that. The vim-tiny package
exists solely to provide the vi command for base installs. It's not
expected to be used by most people on a daily basis. The other packages
are.

Then you're likely only looking at a list of what you have installed,
rather than what is available.

I'll make that more explicit.
