My stackexchange question was identified as a duplicate of
https://vi.stackexchange.com/questions/18001/why-cant-i-paste-commands-into-vi
which gave me enough information to track down ":set t_BE=" (in addition
to the existing ":set mouse=") as a solution to my problem.
A full description of the behavior can be found at
https://vimhelp.org/term.txt.html if you do a search in the page for
"xterm-bracketed-paste".
":set termcap" shows that stretch's vim doesn't support the t_BE
setting, which is why it doesn't need to be cleared there.
