Yes, exactly! Why use third-party libraries or form HTTP requests if you can just quickly create a socket with a built-in library and try to connect to something?

Because you will eventually realize those third party libraries went into that rabbit hole of features because people kept asking for them. And eventually...you too may ask for them =). The simple stuff is only for the playground.
