I definitely agree with this. Literally the only time I use lisp is when working on my Emacs configuration, but after almost 20 years of using it to write all sorts of functionality from big to small things, just having the exposure to lisp has really helped expand my thinking about programming in ways that working with e.g. C, Python, Rust may not have.
One last thing on the Vim emulation front: While I'm not a big fan of VSCode, the VSCode-Neovim extension[0] connects to an actual Neovim instance via Neovim's MessagePack-RPC API, allowing you to use real Neovim but native in VS Code. Pretty cool!
