> From experience, you'll have a hard time choosing a worse technology for low-level, interaction-heavy UI.

Can you elaborate on that? What else would you recommend?

Winch Design [0], which have built some of the world's largest superyachts [1], seem to be using AutoCad. [2] Afaik it's also the same with Lürssen (but don't quote me on that)

Reminds me of a uni project I did.

Using official Kenyan government statistics (back when Open Data was en vogue) for school attendance and access to sanitation, we tried to find out whether there's a correlation between school attendance of kids and their access to different types of sanitation (ranging from "flush toilet connected to main sewer" to "out in the bush"). We titled the project "Happy Butts, Happy Pupils". [0]

Learning 1: Districts with better sanitation have higher school attendance.

Learning 2: "VIP latrine" is a very funny and (unintentionally?) fitting name.
