Klipper vs Marlin (self.3dprinting)

I actually have Marlin + Octoprint but found out recently that Klipper exist. I read everywhere that Klipper is better but I don't really get why. I understand that Klipper use raspberry as powerfull calculator instead of the STM32 of the printer, but octoprint is used to send Gcode to Marlin too... So what's the really difference please?

Edit : I don't understand how Klipper or Marlin can give better results when gcode and instructions are generated by Cura

Are you running Home Assistant? Klipper/Mainsail has an integration for HA that will allow you to control your printer with it. You could use HA to control your Tasmota devices too.
