1. you can't even upload maps from lazer
2. the workflow is completely different because the interface is completely different and a bunch of keyboard shortcuts are different or just gone
3. you need to have a timing point selected to hear the metronome in the timing menu at all
4. lazer just refuses to play the first one or two metronome ticks after you unpause/scroll/breathe
5. selecting a timing point instantly takes you to that timing point with no way to stay where you were before
6. you can't select multiple timing points
7. ctrl+z gets weird if you move an object with the arrow keys
8. you can't rotate accurately if you don't want a multiple of 90° and mouse rotation doesn't even have the kind of snapping you'd have in any image editing program
9. the rotation and flip hotkeys are gone
10. the polygon tool doesn't exist
11. hitsound samplesets and volumes don't work properly (I copied a slider with soft 70 and when I pasted the new slider had normal 100, and when I saved, exited, and reopened the map, the original slider had also been reset to normal 100)
12. you can't right click objects to delete them
13. the playfield is way smaller than in the stable editor, objects are noticeably smaller than in gameplay
14. after you testplay a map in the editor you reenter the editor at the end of the map and if you press F5 or the test button again the song just resumes from there but there are obviously no objects because the map ended and the game doesn't pull you out of test mode even if the song ends
15. the editor forgets your snap divisor every single time you exit
16. bookmarks don't exist
17. changing slider velocity SUCKS, the slider is tiny so you have to be really precise or just type it out
18. there's an equivalent for green lines but you can't affect sv or hitsounds with them (in stable you can select multiple timing points and copy+paste them in a different spot to get the same sv changes or hs settings there, in lazer you currently have to do it all over again object by object or paste the actual objects and rearrange them)
19. saving takes AGESSSSSS
20. lazer takes ages to open
21. changing slider curve types is janky
22. you can't reload the map
23. esc not doing anything it does in stable except exiting the map is actually driving me insane

hotkeys are gone and sliders can just... break

the lazer editor seems significantly better than stable so is there any reason people still use stable?

Slider anchors in lazer works very differently from stable. Lazer white anchor alone can be either perfect circle or bezier or catmull, while stable only supports perfect circle and bezier.
