You can learn all you will ever need to know about vi (and then some) in a single 10-minute session with vimtutor. It doesn't even require a lot of insight; all you need to do is remember half a dozen things by rote. I personally don't think this stuff is really worth examining; we don't examine people on how to hit the “Enter” key, either. In other words, what are you going to learn about whether somebody spent those 10 minutes in vimtutor by asking them three questions, that you won't learn by asking them one question? There are lots of topics on the exam that are more complex, interesting, and essential to a junior Linux professional's work and require a lot more time than 10 minutes to master that are weighted *way* lower than vi. One question on vi should do very nicely and that would free up two weight points for more interesting stuff that is actually worth examining (and will also tell us more about a candidate's proficiency with Linux). > I mean, there's a reason why everyone learns it.
