Defaults really shouldn't change. Each time I upgrade my OS, I get a new version of vim, and have to add more

Until about 2022 this was fine, then they introduced things like shifting the scrolling window, breaking mouse support, I think changing search to highlight text etc.

That's fine, but that means everytime I run it on any machine I have to now deploy a vimrc to fix it.

(I think I noticed the regressions starting in vim 8)
