I mentioned this is another comment, but for me one of the big positives is nothing to do with the model, it’s the UI of how it presents itself.

I hated at first that it wasn’t like Cursor, sitting in the IDE. Then I realised I was using Cursor completely differently, using it often for small tasks where it’s only moderately helpful (refactoring, adding small functions, autocompleting)

With Claude I have to stop, think and plan before engaging with it, meaning it delivers much more impactful changes.

Put another way, it demands more from me meaning I treat it with more respect and get more out of it
