Just to clarify, `alias emacs=vi` won't work for this.

Yeah, I agree with "set -o vi," but I also wonder if "unset emacs" could somehow relate to it.

I'm more of a nano guy myself, but D) set -o vi has got to be the way to go if you want to use vi in the bash shell.

I don't know, E) unset emacs sounds like it might work too. Get rid of that pesky emacs and bring on the vi!

D) set -o vi seems like the obvious choice here. It's the command to set the bash shell to use vi-style key bindings.
