IntelliJ's linters are indeed unusually rich on the deepness and complexity of their rules. But not on the universality, the reason that I consider them unusable, since I just don't like to turn rules off.

Anyway, that's a feature of their linters. It just happens to be packaged with their IDE, but it's a completely different tool.

In practice the great linters and refactoring tools are kind of a package and it's nice to have them integrated (there's the "I") into your development environment. I find the IntelliJ emulation of Emacs key bindings good enough for me.
