> Why are you using VSCode over Vim for remote development?

Who's to say you have shell access to the remote instance?

Why don’t you have shell access? That is the minimum for doing any kind of development. And I think the vscode plugin relies on shell access to install itself (either ssh or whatever protocol for docker)
Vim has netrw. No need for a remote shell
