This doesn't deserve downvotes. Its a legitimate, and smart, way of approaching vi for a lot of reasons. In my opinion, it should be <10 lines I'll agree with

I'll agree with you though I like to have at least a few in there like autoindent, various tabstop and search related settings, or syntax highlighting.
- burgerbrain 15y agoI often hear that one should not customize their Vim settings because when they have to use another machine they will be at a disadvantage but I must say that I really cannot understand this attitude. My .vimrc is has a good deal of custom stuff that I rely on during day to day coding, but on occasion when I have to use, say, busybox's 'vi' (which by the way isn't even quite POSIX) I very rarely have any trouble at all. Certainly not enough trouble to negate the productivity gain I see with my .vimrc.
