That's wrong, sorry.  Try opening hugedictionary.json in these editors and 
you'll see the effect.  Try opening dictionary.json in VS Code, and you'll 
see a warning: "For performance reasons, document symbols have been 
limited to 5000 items."  I don't know what that exactly means (I don't use 
VS Code), but clearly some limitation has been set automatically for 
performance reasons.  Moreover highlighting is completely (and silently) 
turned off on that file by VS Code.  All this is a very reasonable thing 
to do.
