My observation is that there's a certain group of programmers who "don't get graphical CAD" (their words) and prefer code based CAD. Now with LLMs, many of them like to spin up their own solution of "text to CAD", "image to CAD" or just another "code based CAD" and then do a "Show HN", praising it as the bee's knees.

When I look at their examples, the objects are usually non-functional, lacking precision and control, and could much more easily be done in a graphical CAD application.

I think some people just don't want to learn graphical CAD and hence are unable to see where their own solution is lacking important features.
