Absolutely, LSP is strictly more capable than ctags for this purpose. I mention it in the future work section of the writeup I linked above.

The main reason I started with ctags is because the `universal ctags` tool supports a ton of languages right out of the box. Each LSP server implementation tends to only support a single language. So it would be more work for users to find, install and stand up the LSP server(s) they need for their particular projects.

I plan to try some experiments with LSP in the future.
