I'm curious, why wouldn't they let you just write it in Vim, Emacs, or even VSCode?

With google doc, they see you while you edit. There are other third parties that provide pretty good shared editors for this, but this is Google and tradition. I have always felt there 90% the interview process is a form of hazing.
