The problem is that now the core is more complex, and it still won't help if someone else wants to implement a slightly different feature.

I suppose that's how people ended up with Linux. A mish-mash of incoherent UX executions where each app uses a GUI that doesn't quite match your OS and the whole experience is subpar because no boundaries are ever enforced. Likewise, let's cram every popular extension into VS Code! It's what the users want!

This has nothing to do with, and isn't even exclusive to Linux. If you have an axe to grind, at least grind it well.
Why not? If the extension is popular that suggests the functionality is something people want, and surely if you're working on the next version of something you'd be interested in things people want?
One hopes that they wouldn't unilaterally do this to things that are monetized, but otherwise it's hard not to see how it would be a win for everybody.
