I don't think setup time is a fair comparison here. Any dev who cares to use CLI tools has a dotfiles repo that sets up everything in "under a minute".

What about installing the tooling needed to make various plugins work (ripgrep, fd, lsps, etc)?

And I work on different types of systems, which have different requirements and different ways of installing these tools.

Yes, there are other tools to help automate this process as well, but vscode “just works”
