105 | | The second reason we can't just use a simple Cut and Paste tool is that mathematical transformations are sometimes required, such as conversion between Metric units and Imperial, as in the data sheet example above. The third reason is that engineering judgment is often required. All of these actions are trivial if you have the right context. We have many thousands of design engineers doing this all day, every day, and generally, they are good at it. But we rely so much on context to convey meaning that we cannot trust machines to make the right decisionsm on their own. |
