I cannot reproduce your problem. I tried both fonts. Both work well
in combination with term. Maybe I don't quite understand the problem
you are experiencing. What exactly do you mean with "columns don't
line up correctly"? It sounds as if you use a variable width font,
but both fonts you mention are fixed width. Could you elaborate?

Great.

So you run vi from within Emacs. Interesting. ;-)

Are you talking about C-d sent to Emacs or sent to vi? (I know 0.0
about vi.)
