The Selection Module: Is its only purpose to select ranges? Am I missing something?

I'm wondering about this Selection Module. It seems like an odd thing to create an entire dealymadoodah for. Is there a specific workflow or feature I'm not seeing? Why would someone opt to use this instead of the many other ways to range select? Is it simply a relic of Sonars past?

Just curious is all.

Cheers.

Not so much a relic as just another way of doing things. I cannot give you a use case for it though.

I always use it for my final exports. I figure out the exact M:B:T to start and stop, and enter it for export. (I also use it for selecting small excerpts.) I hate the mouse (click & drag), and would much rather type numbers. (I shouldn't have admitted this publicly: now Cake is guaranteed to take that option away in the next version, lol.)

If I want to insert measures then copy and paste, say, a chorus from somewhere else into that gap then the selection module is very useful for being sure the precise co-ordinates of sections are selected.
