Agreed completely. Junos have niceties like copying parts of config, adding config even beforeinterface cards are inserted, renaming/moving parts of config, of course quickly config parts, viewing and exporting config various ways etc. etc. Cisco improved config viewing a bit with IOS-XR too, so that it's possible to scroll like Junos had ages ago.

However there are also things Junos vs Cisco was that Cisco had made bit easier. Just to mention few

1) a simple and quick way to add aliases to config file, which made life easier with long commands that could be otherwise always in hurry hard to remember. Now later versions Junos they have made this better, before it involved twiddling with XML files OS-level etc.

2) IOS TCL scripting, that proved to be quite useful automation tool.

3) OS upgrades of course with a single flash blob made it easier than upgrading or downgrading FreeBSD based Junos.
