Why does nobody talk about using a mandoline for soft herbs

Used to hand-chop parsley and cilantro, took forever. Fine dice took me 5 minutes per bunch. Last spring I tried the mandoline with the thin blade. Now I stack leaves, roll them tight, run them across. Takes 20 seconds. Chives are even better, just line them up and slice. Anyone else speed up prep with a tool they never thought would work?

Really the real win is washing them on the mandoline too, just run water over the board before you slice.
