Use case
An individual or small-team lead planning the week takes existing meeting invites, task lists and to-dos and fits important work into the calendar without it being crowded out by meetings.
Dragging calendar events by hand, using fixed blocks or focus-time conventions, or not planning at all and hunting for gaps ad hoc.
Important work gets crowded out by meetings and ad-hoc items, and manually re-blocking a calendar is slow and needs repeated adjustment.
