The argument in the change proposal is that users might not know what is going on when they run `git commit` and vi instead of nano is opened. It does not mention "quickly changing a setting". Thinking more about this, if someone has to use "git commit", they have probably changed something with a tool. If this is a developer, they are probably using a graphical IDE or a text editor on the console (or maybe a GUI text editor). But I guess the IDEs usually have git integration, so the user would then not use "git commit". If they already use a console editor, would it be typical that they do not set the EDITOR variable? And if they are using a graphical Editor, shouldn't maybe that one be defaulted to in graphical environments?
