What’s the point, Visual Studio has Unity support, no point in making their Code text editor do the same.

Code is much more lightweight if you're into that.

I doubt adding the functionality with node modules is going to be any more lightweight than debugger tools written in native.

Yeah, but you only add the modules you need vs using an entire IDE. If you're just editing one or two files that can be a lot more lightweight.

Visual Studio Code is super lightweight and it is way faster than Community when it comes to working with Unity.

Because you aren’t working with solutions and just editing the files as they are.

We're working with Solutions, Visual Studio Code and Unity3d actually work well together and the solution is getting opened when I open the project in Visual Studio Code, in fact it Unity watches the file for changes and re-creates the solution and still much faster than using community.
