And your shipping address. That's the killer app for me.
One email/password combo is all it takes to get whatever random thing I'm looking at into my office. It's a real convenience.

Another draw of Paypal I remember 5-10 years ago was being able to use money obtained on consumer-to-consumer markets. If you were to use any other p2p service (be it venmo, cashapp, etc) you would be required to have a bank and your money almost certainly will end up hitting your bank account. With Paypal, you can receive money from people then turn around and use that "paypal balance" for many real online storefronts without it showing up in your bank (or without having a bank account at all). Note - this may no longer be true as I believe Paypal has changed how it verifies accounts.
Maybe Stripe should create a paypal-like service for consumers where you can they can pay via "stripe balance" and use a single saved card everywhere.
