Yes, you're correct.  This is the goal from the start.

Maybe it works now.  Its goal is to work with any server that speaks
LSP protocol.

Are you sure about this and LSP?  I mean tree-sitter is fantastic, but
I'm pretty sure LSP has some of this at least outlined:

https://github.com/microsoft/language-server-protocol/issues/18

It's bound to be pretty VS Code centric though, but that's another
discussion.   Having "full" LSP in Emacs would certain give us better
arguments to lobby for a less VSCode-centric specification.
