Why not just use vscode if you want a more featured experience, and vim/neovim if you want a minimalistic experience?

(not including the fact that Microsoft owns vscode and that some parts are not open source, im aware of that, so no need to mention it)

Emacs is more like a piece of marble. Harder to work with but has so much more potential.

More like a ball of clay: infinitely and trivially malleable. And you can bake parts of it into ceramic whenever you want.
