I will contribute a data point for Sublime and VSCode.

I use Sublime for scripts and small programs and use VSCode for larger programs/codebases.

I could use VSCode for everything so I guess they are technically interchangeable, but I prefer Sublime.

This matches my usage too, though I'd add that my #1 use for Sublime is notes.

For me, VSCode could replace Sublime if they just allowed you to open a separate "zen mode" window (not fullscreen, but otherwise like VSCode's current zen mode).

I guess again coming from the point of view of a vim user, I have friends who struggle to use my vim setup because I don't have surround.vim (a common plugin) installed. They use features in it multiple times per minute. For them a complete clone of the vim UI that didn't include an equivalent plugin would be insufficiently vim-like for them to switch.

Yeah, this is where evil-mode sort of shines: I was able to go through my vim configuration feature-by-feature and more or less recreate it in my emacs configuration. A couple years later, I have a sort of hybrid vim-emacs config (smartparens for most cases where I would have used surround.vim before) that works really nicely.
