pricing model, downtime, model support, pricing model, trying to take over the experience rather than assist within my experience. This last one is big, because Cursor wants to "reimagine" how developers work. The problem is the AIs are so far from being competent, they need to be kept on the sidelines and sub'd in occasionally, not be the quarterback. Oh, did I mention pricing model?

It's a cost per month, supports the top models (tbh sonnet 3.5 is the key model) and is VS code + some more UI.

I'm not sure I understand. It's got autocomplete, chat, asking it to change files, but it's vscode plus some stuff. What's it "taking over"?

It doesn't sound like you have a good understanding of cursor based on your comments. I'd suggest giving the trial a shot.
