I think what you are describing is basically a good development environment.. where you can contribute your insight at depth of skill level appropriate for what you have to offer. From my point of view the path to the eventually persuasive version of this enviornment (i.e. where your friend and the CTO will accept to use it at their factory) starts by setting a common standard for data interchange between the tools. So partial work can be commented on and different options for completing it can be assessed relative to one another. I'm just one person but I am on my way and datalisp.is my starting point ... I am certain that the road goes by your place on the way to prosperity.

Thanks for this vote. Good point with the standardization. I take it.
