Again: The key difference is that in VS.Code the UI runs local, thus all UI interactions are "immediate" and there is no difference between local and remote operation. Yes, IO has latency, but where possible that is hidden by the UI (possible: saving a file happens without blocking UI; not possible: loading a file requires the file to be loaded .. but even then the UI can already prepare the window layout)
Thisnis very different form a system, where each keystroke and each menu action has to be transfered first, before the remote side can identify the needed UI update and send that back
Again: learn UNIX distributed computing architecture.
Not going to waste more my time explaining this.
Telnet is a way more low level protocol. Please learn what you are talking about and have a good day.
Pjmlp is right. You need to read on how X was designed for remote work.
