Oh oh. Someone had a too harmonic day and wants to add some spice to it.

Emacs developers viewed it as yanking out of the buffer into the document. Vim viewed it as yanking out of the document into the buffer. It's poor terminology either way, as yanking to me implies moving rather than copying as in both applications

Maybe Emacs yanks from a clipboard (into a buffer), while vim yanks from a buffer into a register (buffer)?
