Dunno how serious you were being, but it doesn't make sense to me to rename an application to the name of another existing application (perhaps we should also remove the '/bin/sh' symlink and rename 'bash' to 'sh'?) .
Using a symlink instead of renaming allows those who want to use vim as vim to do so, and those who want to pretend they are using vi can do that as well. Not that it really makes a difference to me, since i've already got a vim symlink in my backups =o)
