It solves the same problem as Selenium without actually being Selenium.

The one time Selenium was reliable in my company was when our team had a dedicated, massively overprovisioned grid.

The biggest pro is it just has less random "Oh, guess that timed out?" issues than when we used Selenium.

The biggest negative is it's chrome only.

Have you looked into TestCafe[1]? I've only used it for a PoC, but it has better browser support than Cypress.
