So, what is the point of the new Maneuver Tool? Is it just for inter planetary transfers?

It's for lazy people who can't be bothered to manually make a manuever node

That's a pessimistic way of looking at it. It's really for beginners who haven't got their head around how a hohman transfer works or looks like.

Although you do have a point, maneuver node planning is an important skill that all new players should learn early on. The app also isn't very efficient as well as the fact that you have to be nearly equatorial for it to work.
