/usr/bin might have been correct at one time, when it was common
to have "ed" in /bin. but it's currently the case that vi is
often the only editor on the system, and/or the only editor the
user will know how to use. so linux puts it in /bin now. (i
just checked recent fedora, debian, and ubuntu systems.)
