Comment:
Thanks for opining, @Vaelatern.

I noticed your name is listed as [the maintainer of Neomutt](https://github.com/void-linux/void-packages/blob/a62f4724bb2f99f9ca8e1a66e8eee76bd3ffd1ce/srcpkgs/neomutt/template#L19).

According to Neomutt’s homepage:

> NeoMutt is a command line mail reader (or MUA). **It’s a fork of Mutt with added features**.

This seems quite analagous to the relationship between Neovim and Vim.

However, the Neomutt template doesn’t use `alternatives` at all.

Why is `mutt` protected from `neomutt` symlinks, while `vim` isn’t protected from `nvim`?

Bear in mind I’ve [proposed](https://github.com/void-linux/void-packages/pull/36165) continuing to allow `nvim` to symlink `vi` — so users who don’t care about the gulf between Vim and Neovim can still blindly install one over the other and just type `vi` to maintain the same workflow.
