I just installed a few editors which provide the vi alternative in a chroot and it looks like common practice is to have the -tiny variant still have a lower priority than nvi, but then to have any normal variants with a higher priority. Looks like simply bumping vim to 40 would be a good enough solution for this bug, since all the other non-tiny vim variants already have a priority higher than 30..
