Kai's verdict	B-tier. Solid for autocomplete but the category moved past it. Pick Cursor unless you can't.	A-tier for creators training custom looks. B-tier for general use.	S-tier for coding. If you write code of any kind, this pays back the $20 in a day.	S-tier for ad-hoc analysis. Makes you feel like a data scientist in 30 seconds.
