There absolutely is a reason: seismic design. We end up doing a lot of data manipulation between the FEA stage and member design stage.

Its not a distrust so much as a fundamental flaw. For simple gravity design it works fine, but even then we are using spColumn because its just quicker for us.

Care to explain why you have to manually do lots of data manipulation between FEA and member design? Why not write a software that can automate these whatever data manipulation? Seems to me that an All-In-One software should have no problem doing analysis, the-whatever-data-manipulation, and the member design.
