Stacking 200 frames by hand taught me patience, now software does it in minutes

Back in 2017 I would manually stack lunar photos from my old Orion scope using Registax, lining up each frame one by one. Took me 4 hours on a Tuesday night for one decent shot of the terminator near Copernicus crater. Now I just run 300 frames through the free AutoStakkert on my laptop and get sharper results in 15 minutes. Anyone else miss the hands-on feel of the old way, or am I just nostalgic for wasted time?
