That's a very good point. My .02 cents of experience with eglot/treesit:
while I'm happy it works now on my multi-OS setup and I can seamlessly switch computers, it took me a lot of time to understand and duck-duck-go and set up. On top of that, there are some things I still don't completely understand and can't explore on the *scratch* buffer and/or slime.
And yes, I've also tried tree-sitter for Python on my Linux and it makes me wonder what the real gain is, because I'm using the plain python-mode on the other systems and I can't feel a compelling argument to switch.
At least that was the case with eglot ;-) and this is why I've stayed with it.
Happy new year (the 365 days of it)
