Thank you for pointing to this -- I will take this into consideration -- I figured it was something like this for WSL, but not for SSH, but that link explains the context very well.
> Also, fwiw i'm a lifetime vim devotee... used it as my primary IDE for a long time and still use it daily. But vscode won me over exactly with the remote code extensions. Now it's the only proprietary software on my toolchain (apart from my BIOS).
I do want to clarify that I do not think VSCode is a bad tool -- it is a fantastic tool, evidenced by how many people are getting value from it and investing in it. You could technically run VIM inside it if you wanted, so on some level it's probably strictly better on some level. I was mostly worried about it being a trojan horse of sorts, I don't use it so I hadn't heard about the remote extensions and it caused my knee-jerk reaction -- appreciate you adding the context and showing that this was anticipated by the VS team.
