Research direction
Start by inspecting the Flatpak launch configuration for com.visualstudio.code and compare it with the command-line arguments linked in the issue. Verify the result on a Wayland desktop with display scaling below 100%; done means VS Code launches and displays correctly without requiring manual arguments.

Description
The issue I'm referring to is this: https://github.com/ValveSoftware/SteamOS/issues/2351
But @SuzukiStumpy said this fixed the issue for him: https://github.com/microsoft/vscode/issues/311247#issuecomment-4391343357
Adding the following to the command-line arguments for the application seems to have fixed the issue for me for now:
--enable-features=UseOzonePlatform --ozone-platform=wayland --disable-features=WaylandFractionalScaleV1
So I'm wondering if this is something that could potentially be added by default through the Flatpak?
