Copy/paste is great for rapid debugging, because you can pause code in situ and then see exactly why a given line breaks.

And test alternatives on the fly, without rerunning the entire suite of code.

That's also what a notebook can do. That's how I'd use a notebook. But I guess I don't dev with notebooks myself.

Sure. but point is, it's an answer to your question "why copy/paste". It's a useful tool for debugging in certain cases.

I don't work that way, but sure I get it.

I don't use the interpreter almost ever tbh.

I programmed exclusively in C for many years, so I do get that... but interpreter can be really useful too.

It is. And I also.

I usually use PyCharm so I can put breaking points without having to move around. And you can run the whole file instead of copy/pasting it
