Question: Do I miss something by not using Postman? My alternatives for development are "Edit and Resend" of a request (in Firefox) and plain old curl scripts for reusable examples.

The only nice feature is being able to paste a url, get parsed parameters, and then edit all the things using the UI.

Other then that, its same old curl.

Being able to easily switch between dev, stage and prod is useful

In terms of just issuing requests, you can do the same with either python or curl and just scrips.
