I would think this is less team velocity and more about LSP/etc. I am not an expert on how this is developed, but I imagine it will take at least a couple of years for the dust to settle to decide on good public API abstractions for LLM codegen, and they don’t want to introduce anything public that they have to maintain in concert with 3rd parties.

That’s not to say the general concern about GitHub-VSCode smothering competition isn’t valid, but I agree that it’s probably not what’s happening here.
