I think it is OK, since vim is popular enough, even though it is not in the base system. If we can't find an example that uses a base system utility, that is.

Reformulate example to avoid referencing utilities not in base.
Use grep(1) to search for text that would not be found if the output of man(1)
were not filtered previously.
With this, all three utilities are in base and it is simple enough to remove
col(1) from the job in the example and see that the text is not found.

LGTM.
You could also include the vim example after @bcr comment states that it would be okay.
