Yes, cron or rate expressions are useful for recurring tasks, and are the simplest way to schedule tasks with a minute precision. In this use case, I agree that an EventBridge scheduled rule would be the best option!
However, this CDK constructs aims to address another use case : scheduling non-recurring events and be able to manage them. Thanks to the DynamoDB database, you create, delete, count scheduled events, a feature that you won't have with EventBridge nor StepFunctions.

What about creating a scheduled rule on EventBridge ?
Its only accurate up to a minute, so less exact than the Stepfunctions suggested ;-)
