Because /bin/edit normally assumed to be user-configurable symlink/alias. Although indeed in Arch Linux it's owned by `vi` package and I guess would be overwritten every time you update the package.
Right now that would not happen because they are marked as conflicting packages so if you have vi you don't have edit or vice versa.
So from my opinion neither Microsoft's Edit, nor VIM packages should be overwriting /usr/bin/edit.
I can agree with this but it would have to be defined at the distribution level indicating that `/usr/bin/edit` is reserved for creating a symbolic link to the editor of your choice and (ideally) that a tool exists to make or maintain the symbolic link. Right now that is not defined and there is no tool that does it (automagically, of course). Greetings. -- Óscar García Amor | ogarcia at moire.org | http://ogarcia.me
