No. You need all the "i"s to get from consonant to consonant in indivisibility. And Mississippi too. But in vestigial that last one could just go away and no one would be upset about it. Kind of like homogeneous vs. what most people say, homogenous. One too many "e"s.

No extraneous vowels. Oh, wait a minute. I meant no extranous vowels. There, that's better.

When one is constantly trying to fix the world's ills, the work is never done. Carry on.
