To flog this dead horse just a bit longer, micro is nearly seven times the size of nano, and Apple are clearly doing it wrong. Pointing an old name at a new thing is fine as long as there's backward compatibility, but a new name at an old thing that doesn't support the same features is a disservice to the old thing, the new thing and the user.

, micro is nearly seven times the size of nano, Still starts up instantly, though, and still smaller than practically every GUI editor. -/ $ nano -/ test.txt nano: invalid option -- '/' So much for that. Is this a really new option, or does it require a compilation flag that Debian doesn’t bother with?
