VSCode gets the look right. Indeed, its look is fantastic. But it doesn't get the feel of vim right at all. My fingers speak vim and they know whether they're talking to vim or something hinky. So after a few days with VSC, I go back. Usually it has to do with ex mode which I power edit in a lot. But I do look at VSC every year or so and it gets better.
The lack of a built-in profiler was a big one for me (though this may have improved recently). I do like using external tools like Intel VTune or Morgan Stanley's XPedite but they're not great for the "quick profiling" you might do to test out various implementations of a function or component.
Maybe that's been added since I used it 1.5 years or so ago though.
