Learning the -p was the biggest gain I’ve had after years of using git via cmdline only.

Which is kind of the point. If a GUI editor does this stuff for you, that seems like a win over incrementally learning these little command line tricks that save you a bunch of time.

That’s fine for some and I have no problems with it but my mind doesn’t work that way and instead it asked “how is possible the UI is doing this”. All of that lead to learning what hunks are and manually editing them to learn.
