Thanks Matt for this. I'd forgotten about the built-in definitions.
These do make many of my yasnippets superfluous.

Good question! One case I would still use yasnippets for is more
complex constructions. For instance, I use tikz a lot for creating
drawings for teaching. For a given course, many of these drawings are
similar. One snippet I have is:
--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
#name : tikz
# --
#+begin_latex
\tikzstyle{unit}=[rectangle, draw=blue!80!black, fill=black!5!white]
\tikzstyle{stream}=[rectangle, draw=white, fill=yellow!50!white]
\begin{tikzpicture}[node distance=2cm]
\node[stream] (feed) {Feed};
\node[unit] (reactor) [right of=feed] {Reactor} edge [<-] (feed);
\node[unit] (separator) [right of=reactor] {Separation} edge [<-] (reactor);
$0
\end{tikzpicture}
#+end_latex
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---
Before Carsten implemented the beamer option in org-mode, I also had a
snippet for setting up columns with blocks in org-mode for my custom
beamer setup I used to have.
