Actually, the Debian install cd doesn't have vi but does have nano, and vim (and neovim) is larger than nano.

- yjftsjthsd-h 9y agoThat actually seems a bit odd; it's not like vi is big.
- jwilk 9y agoThe size argument alone cannot explain nano > vi preferences in d-i. vim-tiny and nano sizes are nearly the same; nvi is smaller; I'm pretty sure the "vi" applet in busybox would be much smaller.
