A correct implementation of the problem? *ROFL*
I know, it's a typo, I just thunk it be funny.
Anyway.
A correct implementation of the problem is not a bad way of
putting it. Moving the cursor around in the middle of the
insert command indicates a confusion about how vi works.
Really.
I had "unmap up" and so on in my .exrc for years. It causes more
problems than it helps, especially on flakey lines or telnet sessions
when your cursor commands start with escape.
