No, it isn't! I can be *installed* on every Linux system, but that a
whole other can of worms.
True vim is not. But vi should be. I'm not aware of any Linux distro
which does not install it. Do you know of a distro that does not?
That would be very strange, since vi is mandated by POSIX

Of course there are other options, like elvis or busybox, but unless you
are building a minimalist POSIX system the most viable option would be
to install vim. So practically every desktop Linux distro ships with vim.
