I often just magit on a separate terminal and edit with some other IDE/editor.

You don't need to learn emacs beyond C-X 0 and C-X C-B really.

Productivity is higher than with manual git commands.

That's like saying that the Git CLI is specific to CLI users. It is, but anybody can use the CLI or open Emacs no matter what they use to edit the code. I personally started using Emacs for Org-mode, but I code in the Jetbrains IDEs.

Now the Jetbrains IDEs have a absolutely terrific Git integration, but if they didn't I could still open Emacs and use Magit.
