How is it more effort to automate boilerplate code? Seriously the worst part of being a programmer is writing the same line of code all of the time. Especially when you know that it won't actually cause anything interesting to happen on the screen it's just background stuff that needs to happen.

Well you have to actually setup the boilerplate, plus copilot is generally more intelligent and context aware, especially for small snippets when you're already coding
