That's what they would have said about drafting tools in the 1880s, command line AutoCAD in the 1980s. Try to imagine the 2080s, or the most visionary sci-fi movie about that future - one of those movies where people look back and says "wow they were close!". Suppose a character wanted to get an idea for a three-dimensional form from their brain onto some medium. They're not going to be clicking a plane, clicking sketch, clicking some lines, tapping the dimension hotkey, twisting their spacemouse a bit with their left hand, clicking extrude, dragging, tapping into their numpad the height, etc etc. We use the clunky interface of our age.
