Weaknesses	Less agentic than Cursor/Claude Code Model quality varies	Writing quality trails Claude/ChatGPT Political bias debates Ecosystem is just X	Aesthetic ceiling below Midjourney Tied to Adobe subscription	Not a traditional NLE — some workflows awkward Overdub ethics require care
Kai's verdict	B-tier. Solid for autocomplete but the category moved past it. Pick Cursor unless you can't.	A-tier for real-time. B-tier for everything else. Worth checking when news breaks.	S-tier inside Photoshop (Generative Fill). B-tier standalone.	S-tier for content creators. Cuts editing time in half. Non-obvious but life-changing.
