Re: Why Inventor?
One other thing about 2-D vs. 3-D (parametric) CAD systems: sometimes 3-D is too much information for a given job. When you're doing finely detailed work like robot design, there are obvious advantages to fitting things precisely and designing all aspect of the part. When designing some support frame out of structural steel, that level of detail is often excessive.
Many places use a combination of 2-D and 3-D software, as necessary, in order to try to balance the needs of a given project.
