Not for me it's not. :) Keyboard macros are different: they execute in
serial (multiple-cursors is in parallel) and they are "invisible",
non-interactive, which makes them harder to design and, to a certain
extend, therefore less flexible.

I still use keyboard macros for certain things, mind you, but for simple
stuff, mc is great.
