Why are people paying for it… is it only for some fancy editor integration so it sends off/reads back the code as needed?

from what i understand, having had a promptfondling former friend try to sell me on it, is that it is just LLM-autocomplete for code, so yeah the editor integration

my best attempt at emulating it:

def what_was_that_sorting_algorithm_called_again(array, length_because_i_dont_know_python_semantics_so_i_use_cursor):
    if ... # [here, i guess it would suggest something stupid like checking if the array is already sorted]

edit: that is, i don't think this can be done directly through the LLMs they plug into. but idk, i haven't touched any of these since 2023
