Using a web renderer disqualifies it from being "native".

Sublime Text doesn't use native UI frameworks either, it rolls it own UI toolkit. Seems just as native (not at all) as web.

Is there a term for less layers of VMs? It seems to be leagues more native than vscode because it is compiled for OSX instead of a webview.

Obviously Python is much much more native than JavaScript.

No it’s not true, it was sarcasm.
