I would really like to see this kind of work be done upstream. Emacs still looks the same as it did decades ago despite other editors advancing and becoming more user friendly.

Emacs is probably the most user-friendly editor. Its just not very beginner-friendly.

The problem is that you need to spend 20 years to get out of the "beginner" zone.

The curse as a power user is that you want to know how it works. I let that feeling go with emacs. I've been happily using it since. My first gateway and killer use case was magit. Life with git will never be the same.
