I’ve been a professional programmer for 17 years and have never used multicursors. I don’t even fathom under what conditions you’d want to. I use Find and Replace.

Everyone programs a little differently. I often use it when e.g. using intrinsics and I want to change types. Find and replace isn't especially helpful when they're different names with substructure you need to modify locally.
