Comparing the termcap between Bookworm and Trixie reveals no differences, 
so this is not a termcap issue.

Digging into VIM docs, there appears to be a setting "belloff". If I set 
belloff=cursor, then the annoying behaviour goes away.

The VIM documentation states for this:

'belloff' 'bo'          string  (default "")
                        global
        Specifies for which events the bell will not be rung. It is a 
comma
        separated list of items. For each item that is present, the bell
        will be silenced. This is most useful to specify specific events 
in
        insert mode to be silenced.
...
        cursor      Fail to move around using the cursor keys or                
                    
<PageUp>/<PageDown> in |Insert-mode|.

The thing is, VIM is not failing to move around when using PageUp / 
PageDown while in insert mode, but it still rings the bell unless belloff 
is set to "cursor" - so Trxie's VIM behaviour and the VIM documentation 
disagree.

Seems to me to be a clear cut VIM bug.
