The difference is that when you do a punch in/out, the DAW will 
mute the part that is being replaced, while you can still hear
the parts before and after. And when punch in/out is not-destruc-
tive, so you can always move the new take to a separate track
and/or edit the X-fades as you want them. Best of both worlds.
