But I did go from notepad, to eclipse, to ST, to vscode to JetBrains, so … obviously I’m trying to get into emacs now

I don’t ask my work to pay, because I use it personally as well, and I look at my brother as a woodworker and he’s honed his tools to what suits him.
I do the same.
It doesn't even come close. It's powerful but it's definitely not the same. I would go back to NetBeans before using VSCode. There's no religion behind it, it's just that there are tools that suit my needs better than others.
Considering nearly every S/W dev globally can make that in a couple of days, I'm not sure how much of a flex it is considering it would be your primary work tool.
And I say this as someone whose never used a Jetbrains tool and use Vim for nearly everything (except when I'm on Windows where I use a mix of Notepad++ and VSCode).
Sometimes you can afford it, and sometimes you can’t.
I think we forget when you could (and still can) do dev with a text editor.
I 100% get what you say, but that’s a lot of money potentially - which is where I think vscode /vim etc shine in that it’s free and can do the same kinda thing
This is only possibly true if your definition of "global" is "1st world".
