The supposed 'wizard' is no sage. Every sage uses emacs.

Lowest. Common. Denominator. Every sage switches Visual Studio Code to vi mode.

And the mega corp requires use of a fork of vscode with a limited number of plugins, including ones that run completely client-side that would increase productivity greatly.

Next, they'll demand RTO, Colemak keyboard layouts, and faded 13" 4:3 CRT monitors.

Nooooooooooooooooo.....

Every sage who started using linux in the mid 90s thanks the gods of internet twice a day for better and better editors because he does not need to say "how the fuck do I get out of this shit" when he lands in vi by mistake (vi took its name from that expression, a less known fact,)
