Using both is very good. Sublime has some text transformation features that VSC doesn't have (I use a ton of regex replace and multi-cursor typing -- VSC has these but there are some menu items in ST that are not in VSC), VSC has a deb

You can conceivably move up to management, never have to deal with algorithm hazing again, and make more than the guy that has to refresh every few years. The rewards just do not add up for this to remain an industry practice.
