If I'm deep in the weeds of trying to deliver and I'm desperately reaching for something outside of the standard tool set, I'd like the person who made that tool to have crafted it in a dwarven forge under a pale moonlight. Not to have thrown to their hands and admit a tool with the intelligence of a smart working dog breed is smarter than them.

If you would like a tool built with my organic artisanal human fingers, then I am certainly open to sufficiently large offers of money to build one for you! Alternatively, you can simply not use it if you think it won't fit your needs :)
