Maybe what you need to know, but not how to use the programs. I was very anti Microsoft in my school days but had to learn Excel and Word in school. It helped me so much in my first job.
Someone who can write elisp macros and have muscle memories for complex actions won’t be bothered with VS or VS code at all.
The other way around however…
Modern IDEs are not at all required for success in this industry. They can sometimes even be a crutch.
I still teach people Vim. Some learn other things later but the important thing is they have a fast and free baseline available in every package manager.
