I find copy pasting blocks of code to be pretty worthless. It takes way too much effort to give it enough context for it to do anything sensible with my code, so it's usually better to just not try.
Cursor is the first time that I have felt that a chat-like UX could actually be useful for coding, because it gets the context for me. I still prefer autocomplete (and Cursor's autocomplete is very very good), but chat is actually occasionally useful for me in large projects. Without Cursor chat is only useful for one-off no-or-low-context scripts.
