It's not a complaint about your post, just a moderation request. :)

Does vscode have vim emulation or actual vim that runs plugins. If it's the former, your statement is ludicrous.

Help me understand more: what are "remote capabilities" wrt vscode?

I kicked the tires on vscode and atom and while I liked lots of things about them, it seemed like they were kinda overboard with memory consumption. These things are ultimately running web browsers, right? I'll probably have to give it another look.

I'm using plain vim occasionally, but never tried to do any coding in it, just because I'm not sure how to configure it for that. Which plugins for Python coding are universally agreed on as "must haves" Preferably just one, or two at most.
