I'd think a tool "tailor-made for Software Engineers" would use a human readable text format that can be stored in a VCS repository along side the other documentation. It could work if the GUI outputs a simple text file, but this looks like it'd output an image.

That's a good point IMO and that's why I still find nomnoml my favorite https://nomnoml.com/.

However, nomnoml is more like UML tool than diagramming tool like OneModel. So a big issue could be how to keep all the icons in the text format. With SVGs, the file would be big/or would include some extra assets folder, or with the links directly hosted on OneModel, the file would be tightly coupled.
