While many welcome the availability of SAS EG for connecting to SAS Viya 4 as they see it as a continuity from the past (and carry the historical baggage along with), the availability of multiple interfaces to connect to SAS Viya 4 (SAS EG, SAS Studio, VS Code ) is chaotic and an avoidable irritant for admins.
In my experience VS Code has proved it's mettle .
When it works for Java, C#, go, python and, C++, Oracle etc., it can work for SAS too as efficiently.
It is my humble suggestion that SAS promote VS Code as the official Code editor for SAS/CAS programming and deprecate SAS Studio and SAS EG over a reasonable period of time.
This would simplify managing the environment (and make business sense to SAS too!). SAS would only need to focus on extensions.
