Veritas cabinet scraper useful if I already have their scraper plane?

is there any application that would make better use of the cabinet
scraper ($46) from LV, as opposed to their scraper plane? I also have
various shaped steel scrapers.

if you are talking about card scrapers.....

1> sure. there are plenty of places where you will want a different
angle/just a corner, some application other than full plane function
from a scraper.

2> I suspect that you are talking about something other than a card
scraper. it's not like LV to price gouge on stuff. a card scraper
should cost between 10 and 20 bucks. got a link to the item in question?

I took it that he was referring to their version of the old Stanley No. 80
cabinet scraper ... maybe not.

Nice to have, but not a necessary. Even owning one, I generally grab for a
regular scraper first, but on big surfaces, like table tops and glued
panels, the veritas cabinet scraper does save hot thumbs and sore hands.

I have found the Cabinet scraper very useful for 'heavy' work, like
scraping the bandsaw marks+hide glue off of veneer. Scraper plane, not so
nice for that kind of application.
