In OpenAI's email to share GPT-5.1 they mentioned that it's good for "everyday coding tasks". What are your everyday coding tasks?

Their email included:

gpt-5.1: for everyday coding tasks

gpt-5.1-codex: for complex, long-running agentic coding

gpt-5.1-codex-mini: for cost-efficient edits and changes

for context, I usually write/rewrite a lot of html/css/js for my own personal business site, along with Apps Script in Google Sheets.

The author is seeking clarification on OpenAI's definition of 'everyday coding tasks' after receiving an email about GPT-5.1, and shares their own coding tasks for context.
