I guess if you select the block and can tell it to only replace within that block, yes. As far as I know VSCode/Theia don't allow that. It's either click replace 20 times, copy/paste to a new file and replace all that way, or a quick multi cursor. I prefer the multi cursor. Especially when the language servers glitch out and don't let me rename the symbol gracefully, but there are many other use cases like the alignment as they mentioned.
