I'm far better at AutoCAD because I know the methods used by manual drafting. I know different techniques and can draw most any geometry without using advanced commands. If you can draft by hand with just circles and lines, then you can do the same on AutoCAD. The problem is that it is a lost art. I'm not saying every draftsmen should need to sit down and manually draft everything. However, I will say that they should have the ability and understanding to.

Also, a note on "crazy" stuff: Inventor sometimes does weird things when you don't use parametric(I often don't, so I can relate). However, I have never had this problem with AutoCAD. It does exactly what its told every time. You just have to be careful how your telling it what to do. If you don't tell it right, it might interpret a different command. In this case, the blame goes to the ambiguous input and not the computer's fault.
