1-Don't forget the new triggers like WHEN-NEW-BLOCK-INSTANCE and others which cut programming time;

2-Don't forget the new "block attribute" which allow to build a "update only" form in minutes. (not so easy with f3);

3-Don't forget the new way to manage master-detail relationship;

There is BIG differences...
