You are being needlessly pedantic. The point is that typing "vi" into a terminal runs some application that implements a "vi-ish" interface. Whether it is ported vi or vim or vim-tiny has some effect on how nice that interface is to work with, but I would argue that most vim users would be able to get their configuration fixed or whatever

Now tell me: which vi clone was elsurudo talking about? Because those are different projects. And Vim doesn't have a smallest issue with arrow keys (unless with "compatible" option set, I think, but I didn't use it for years and I may remember wrong).
