Shall I start editor wars?
LOL. No. Please don't. :-)
I'm can just as easily get by with cat(1), awk(1) and sed(1).
I use ex, which is almost always there,
until I can install emacs. Then I'm much happier. Even though ex is
just a command-line version of vi, I've never learned vi.
PS: Nano seems to be installed on all of my OI systems. I didn't
install it, so it must have come with the OS just like vi.
