Yes, if those files apply to all team members using the same tool absolutely check them in. What's the problem? It reads to me like maybe you don't know what these files are actually used for and why a team benefits from sharing them.

The whole point is, that not everyone is in the bubble of VS Code users, and not everyone wants to have that stuff on their machine, and not everyone is benefiting from it either. Imagine cloning some repo and having extra stuff in there from 3 different IDEs and 3 different editors. This stuff clutters up the repo.
