You can

:set paste

in vim to prevent it from messing with pasted content (don't forget to
set nopaste afterwards).

What's the difference between that and
:set ai
and
:set noai

With newer vims that's rarely necessary though since they can distinguish
between input that was pasted and input that was typed.

I thought that I was going nuts when I encountered that. Any idea how to
defeat such a so-called 'feature"?

Use "gvim" instead of "vim" in a Terminal. The problems arises because vim in the terminal simply gets the input and "thinks" that you typed that stuff in, for which it does auto-indenting. gvim, OTOH, doe sthe pasting by itself. It also has other useful features like menus and popup-dialogs for searching etc.
