The author doesn't make it clear why they switched from Cursor to Claude. Curious about what they can do with Claude that can't be done with Cursor. I use both a lot and find Cursor to be superior for the very large codebases I work in.

It's easy: Cursor are resellers, they optimize your token usage, so they can make a profit. Claude is the final point, and they offer tokens for the cheapest price possible.

I use Cursor in MAX mode because my employer pays for the tokens. I probably should have mentioned that in my OP. It makes a huge difference.

Can you elaborate on “huge”?
