VS Code didn't start out like you think it did. More akin to life forming in a petri dish vs sitting down to design the Visual Studio replacement. From what I recall piecing together it came about internally as MS due to monaco and TypeScript. I'm under the impression it was a TypeScript dogfood/dev environment project. It worked out well and they threw it over the fence to the public where it caught fire.
