Yes - supporting full manufacturing intelligence is part of the larger vision (in practice quite far off).

I don't think there is need to unseat anyone. 3D modeling market is expanding and the intent is to serve people for who are not users of current market leading tools. There are tons of plausible UX paradigms that have not been explored. This is one such exploration :)

"like could you make it aware of the fdm limits and help me avoid them while im building "

That's part of the long term vision. First solve modeling, then solve manufacturing of the models reliably.

The modeling already follows this principle - you can't model things the rest of the operations can't support.
