What's the point in defaulting functions in C++11?

Question

C++11 adds the ability for telling the compiler to create a default implementation of any of the special member functions. While I can see the value of deleting a function,

Answer 1

Defaulting is more useful for copy-constructors if you have a class with lots of attributes. For example, if you have this class:

class MyClass {
private:
   int offset;
   std::string name;
   std::vector relatives;
   float weight;
   MyClass* spouse;
   Vehicle* car;
   double houseArea;
   Date birth;
   Person* parents[2];

public:
   /* Default constructor will be defined here */
};

instead of defining the copy-constructor this way:

MyClass(const MyClass& that) :
   offset(that.offset),
   name(that.name),
   relatives(that.relatives),
   weight(that.weight),
   spouse(that.spouse),
   car(that.car),
   houseArea(that.houseArea),
   birth(that.birth),
   parents(that.parents)
{}

you would define this way:

MyClass(const MyClass&) = default;
