Errmm, yes, I'm familiar with the difference in motivations behind the tools. I guess what I'm looking for is specific examples of things that cause you to use grep instead of ag. Ubiquity is a good one. But let's say you have both ag and grep. When do you reach for one and why?
(I should have said this in my first comment, but I'm the author of ripgrep, and I'm just generally interested in learning more about the differing use cases for these tools, in the words of users. I certainly have my own ideas about the question!)
