It's not necessarily better, just a different interface that scales better to complex requests.

curl command lines can get huge and unwieldy. If a curl command has a huge amount of input, that gets unwieldy, too. Same thing with data input.

The fact that your requests persist and can be repeated and modified is useful. Better than looking up past commands in ~/.bash_history.

Ha, I feel the same way and started to make a little tool to help this, but most of the feedback I got was that it was pointless :( https://github.com/seiferteric/clamp

Better than saving those requests in curlrc and recalling them with --config?
