I realise there's a multitude of versions of both emacs and vi, but
another thing that's always kind of bugged me about vi is you can
never be quite sure what version you're going to be running, and
whether or not it's going to be self-documenting or documented at all
(something that was more of a bane when I was working in the tech
industry).  Meanwhile, you can pretty much assume that if a system has
emacs, it's gonna be gnumacs at this point.
