This line was added in 9eebfbcac5
and I can't tell what it was supposed to do (that commit's message
only says "Fix NWE-only edit tab", thanks a lot).
Since then the init code was refactored a lot, at some point this
line was moved to be a part of a completely different check (???),
and now it's causing visual mode to be disabled even though the
user only set their preferences to *prefer* wikitext mode.

This continues to take more effort than all other skins combined, but
still every time our overrides get less crazy. Maybe, and stay with me
here, maybe a year and five patches from now I'll remove the last one.
See 91f99ce78d for the last time.

In many places we check whether VE is available before doing things
(init.isVisualAvailable). This variable includes checks for whether
the page is wikitext, etc. Now it will also include checking whether
VE is enabled in user preferences.
In almost all places where init.isVisualAvailable is used, we were
already also checking if VE is enabled, so this doesn't affect the
behavior. But notably, we didn't do it when showing the option to
switch to VE in the welcome dialog and in the toolbar, causing T243723.
Changing init.isVisualAvailable this way makes it consistent with
init.isWikitextAvailable, which has always included a checking whether
NWE is enabled in user preferences.

Previously, the ve-mw/init/ directory contained two kinds of files:
those that were used when initializing VE, and those that may be
loaded even if VE is not going to be initialized at all. The latter
kind must not use the `ve` global variable.
After moving those files to ve-mw/preinit/ we can enforce this with
.eslintrc.json in that directory. This would have prevented T228684.
(Technically they merely must not use `ve.init`, and may use `ve`,
but that's harder to enforce. We should instead move the few non-init
methods out of `ve`: now, track, trackSubscribe, trackSubscribeAll).
Also, group some files under ve-mw/init/: targets/ now (only)
contains ve.init.mw.Target and its subclasses, apiresponsecache/
now contains ve.init.mw.ApiResponseCache and its subclasses.
