This is exactly what I use it for. It's my go-to "dumb tedious things" model. And it fills that role very well.

You don't need the smartest slow model for every task. I've used it all week for tedious things nobody wants to do and gotten a ton done in less time.

The only thing I've had issues with is if you're not a level more specific than you might be with smarter models it can go off the rails.

But give it a tedious task and a very clear example and it'll happily get the job done.
