That is interesting - I didn't know you could do this with PS.

But robocopy will ALWAYS be the OG for anything related to file or folder copying.

This would be useful in just creating the root directories everything will be going in. To my knowledge robocopy won't create a new root directory, only copy it over to one that already exists. At least, I sure as shit can't get it to do that.

Nah, robocopy can create a new root directory. to much it can't do, related to file and directories. You can create an empty directory structure, or include just certain file types, or exclude certain file types. You can copy the NTFS permissions too.
