My gut feeling is that Claude Code being so popular is:
- 60% just having a much better UX and having any amount of "taste", compared to Cursor
- 39,9% being able to subsidize the raw token costs compared to what's being billed to Cursor
- 0,1% some magical advantage by also training the model
Claude Code is just much _pleasant_ to use than most other tools, and I think people are overly discounting that aspect of it.
I'd rather use CC with slightly dumber model, than Cursor with a slightly better one; and I suspect I'm far from being the only one.
