Or let me ask it this way. Right now in the entire repository is

the only editor being used as a fallback in the repository, then some
compromise needs to be worked out so don't have people dragging in
multiple editors to fill the fallback capacity.
calm down a bit here. The only reason it would have a hard requires on
'vi' would be if the software itself, without any options for $EDITOR,
falls back to calling the hard path of /bin/vi.
If your software does the same, but is hard coded to fall back
to /usr/bin/nano, then that's fine, you'll have a requirement on nano.
