Do you not see the difference using a component or an in-code class?

Not sure what you mean by an "in-code" class since all classes are
"in-code" but I assume you mean that by abstracting your ojbject to a
compoenet you don't have to see the code. Yes, that can be a benefit if
the comonent is to be reused in several applications or distributed.
For me, I would have to justify the extra cost of developing a
component over simply using a class. If I need something visual then a
Frame or Component Template works well for me.

I usually set component properties in code anyway as I don't want to
take a chance on properties getting changed by someone clicking around
in the Object Inspector
