All this looks really great, however I think I just can't deal with the effort of maintaining these complex editor configurations anymore.
I've been a multi-decade Vim user, until I switched to VSCode last year. It made me realize how much better the user experience can be for an editor. I had all kinds of complex vim configurations and plugins with special cases for linux vs. mac, server vs. desktop, GUI vs. terminal, all of which are a huge pain in the butt to maintain.
If there was one thing I could ask of Vim (or even emacs), it'd be a consistent high-quality default user experience.
(Ofcourse, the default experience in VSCode isn't perfect either, but it took me four lines in settings.json and four plugins (vim, go, eslint, clang) for a near-perfect experience.)
