See 
https://github.com/nixos/nixpkgs/blob/6844c91781fdad8ad523b77ec9d1f35ff407a8e6/pkgs/development/node-packages/node-packages.json#L383-L387.

It appears that there are no executables named 
vscode-{css,html}-languageserver, so the only way of accessing 
those corresponding executables (at least in Nix) is via 
nodePackages.vscode-langservers-extracted, which provides 
vscode-{css,html,json}-language-server. Meanwhile, 
vscode-{css,html}-languageserver-bin are already accounted for in 
eglot-server-programs via the executables 
{css,html}-languageserver.

So I think we should keep support for the "language-server" 
variants as well.
