* If you want 50ms latency on every interaction with the editor * If you want to send telemetry to Microsoft * If you want slow fuzzy search for massive codebases

Best out of the box python experience out there.

No need to configure anything.

Company policies. ("we all use the same editor")

Bonus: Neovim isn’t phoning home to Microsoft nor does it try to bifurcate communities on using proprietary plugins.

I don't have to spend a bunch of time configuring VSCode, I can simply do a one-click install for plugins, and I can focus on the editing interface with Neovim.
