Why vim-lsp for neovim when neovim has native LSP support?

I'm sure there's a reason! I am not sure, after reading the README. Thanks!

vim-lsp existed before neovim supported it. It was one of the first one lsp plugins for the vim ecosystem. It is so old that the time I wrote vim-lsp, I had to convince folks on the internet why LSP is awesome.

I see! Thanks @prabirshrestha
