I do it to save the limited brain power I have before rest or food is required. You could spend 5 minutes writing a sort (at a high level processing) or just use existing code which might take 5 minutes to find but uses less brain power.

This allows you to use that brain power on specific things that need you and let google remember the format of that specific command or let an ai write out your routing file.

The older I get the less I'm bound by time, lack of knowledge or scope but more limited by clarity. Delegate tasks where possible and keep the clarity for the overall project and your position.
