Yes, Electron has a huge amount of problems (bundle size, speed, feeling, native APIs..) but all are solvable.
With a right approach, some Webassembly improvements and Webkit iterations all could vanish.
On the end of the day, Slack and Visual Code Studio are great apps from the user perspective while features, design and business model play much important roles in choosing the software compared to the underline tech stack.

I'd also argue that the need to feel "integrated in the o. s." is actually relevant only for a small subset of apps, anything that's used full screen doesn't need any of that and it's better served by creating its own "mini universe"
