Asking for `vim -d` instead of following alias

[RyanScottLewis]

I use neovim, vim is not installed on my system. I do however have a /etc/zsh script that is loaded for all users with zprofile that aliases vim to the location of my nvim binary.

Would it be possible to follow that alias, or will I have to softlink /usr/bin/vim to /usr/bin/nvim to alleviate this problem (which does work, as a workaround)?
