There is no point in typing the "m" in vim. Just edit your files with the vi shortcut.
vim (and especially neovim) have WAY more features than vi and different shortcuts. Running vim with the "vi" symlink emulates vi and disabled a lot.
I can't confirm this. when using vi, I have syntax highlighting, split windows and even search and replace. Even my Termux installation states it's vi improved, when issuing
vi -h.
