You don’t get it - autocomplete is evolving from keyboard clicks to prompts. Tab-ing is not as effective as agentic coding.
Your beloved cursor will go all in on this front, less and less priority on focused cursors in the editor.

And it's not "my beloved cursor", not sure why you're being such an absolute weirdo about this.
Agentic coding is fine, definitely helps me a lot with setup and boilerplate, but finer business logic details and UX changes are now it's strong suit especially if you know WHAT you want but not HOW to explain it in a clear enough format that it can do it without additional prompting.
I’d rather do that than painstakingly put my request into prose, cross my fingers, and hope the “agent” doesn’t burn 100,000 tokens making stupid and unrelated changes all over my codebase.
I believe in “show, don’t tell,” and autocomplete is the former while agents are the latter.
It is more effective when you have to do a bunch of similar changes. Or when code is standard enough that you just hit tab, and change perhaps one line. Or when parts of code are immediately deduced from context, and substitutions/changes are immediately provided.
