I don't have a problem with your arduino related point of view, but I'm
sure you never heard from the push and shove router that kicad implements?
(take a look at youtube!)

If you have used it once, egale would look a lot like
copy-and-paste-maker-arduino-blinky-blinky-community-thingy..

People at the swiss CERN are developing it, for sure they only know how
to make arduinos, dnon't they?
