Default Why Clipping Path is better?

There are many options in Photoshop and other Image Manipulation software to create transparent background, like: Extract Filter, Magic Wand, Quick Mask, etc. None of this these options can provide the crispy outlook of cutout images other than Clipping Path. Moreover, for complex images, some of the other options can take more time. However, in terms of quality of cutout, the is no match for hand-drawn Clipping Path in Photoshop.

Well one of the biggest benefits to a clipping path is the fact that its vector based. This makes editing/adjusting a breeze. Vector paths/shapes in PS are golden, can't stress this enough.
