The difference, at least with Vim and Emacs is the time it takes or time one can spend getting it all setup to do all the nice things the Jetbrains products just do out of the box.
I think the last time I fully revamped my Neovim setup I spent upwards of 40 hours learning, tweaking, and plugin shopping. And that was before Neovim shipped with it's own LSP so it was CoC. Now I'd probably spend however many hours converting my config over to the new setup.
The Jetbrains stuff just worked. I tweaked a small handful of settings and was good to go.
I'm generally allergic to anything Java, and desktop apps written in Java tend to scare me off. But I'm glad I got over that bias, because I've been pretty happy with CLion.
