I meant superior to Atom and not to Emacs.

As far as I know, the VSCode plugins run in their own process, which makes the editor much more responsive when it loaded many plugins.

I was assuming that Atom extensions were similarly powerful as in Emacs, if that's not the case, then my point is moot.

I agree that restricting what plugins can do can lead to better stability and speed at the expense of extensibility.
