A blade tugs at the hairs before cutting them off. That pulls them out of the skin a tiny bit. The first blade pulls them out, the second grips them before they retract, and cuts them off lower. It makes a noticeable difference. The third blade makes a very tiny difference. After that, it's marketing. (Should I look up studies to cite?)
In my experience, electric gives the cleanest shave. In the long run it's cheaper, too.
In my experience I get a much better shave with a DE than a disposable razor. It's also much cheaper and reduces waste significantly. Cartridge razors are a scam.
I've never had an electric that feels good--maybe bc I have really thick hairs it always has some places that get yanked instead of cut. Cost wise I guess electric's pretty cheap in the long run but you can get single razor blades for about 10 cents so it's also pretty cheap
