Hi Brian ...
I couldn't agree with you more. I use Rhino because I have for a number of years, I can do sophisticated 2d drafting with it, one of its plug-ins is great for creating cross sections of construction, complex and large site contour tools and it has built in (plug-in) renderers that are great for architecture and landscape architecture (in my humble opinion). It is, as you point out a "specialists" tool.
MoI is more intuitive, getting better every day, much less expensive - beats SketchUp hands down ... I love working with it when I can ... but it is not yet a one-tool for me. It may be by version 3.
I personally am very happy that you are beating the drum for MoI ... I do, too ... it is a GREAT modeling tool.
cheers,
eric
