       @benjedwards Blender.  - The GUI is completely customizable and panel oriented - All UI elements (and objects in the 3D scene) are accessible through a python interface - You can script/macro the software from within itself - Plugins are extremely easy to write and integrate in a way that feels first party - All numerical inputs are capable of taking in equations to calculate the right value for you - All shortcut keys are rebindableFor me it's not about the core competency of the software, but the user experience overall. Software can do an amazing job at what it was made to do, but still be a pain to use. Once I understood what Blender can do as just software it ruined my opinion of all other programs.
