I suspect that the ABCD issue was more one of terminal/ssh
configuration rather than a vim issue. The vim.tiny should
understand arrow keys just fine (as you note in your local
experience), but I've had occasions where putty/kermit/telnet send
one $TERM identification but transmit an unexpected/conflicting/wrong
sequence for arrow keys (as well as function keys, alt+character,
etc). That's one of the things I loved first about vi/vim: even
when my terminal settings didn't exactly match, I had full
functionality from just the core 7-bit ASCII characters without
having to make sure my terminal settings lined up.
