Simple is not always better. Especially with plugins you often also want a certain level of quality, organisation and control. I don't know much about the difference between Atom and VS Code on that front in detail, but compared to the more customizable editors (Emacs, vim, Sublime) I was always impressed with the quality of VS Codes plugin-system. While Atom made for a more messy impression, and it was at last the reason why I started to use VS Code more as a side-editor, instead of Atom.
