I agree with your ordering of the various programs out there but FreeCAD 26.3 is now available as a release candidate with a wonderful collection of improvements. I'd think for many people, FreeCAD is now "good enough" for a lot of things. I'm building a virtual pinball cabinet and the whole thing is modeled in FreeCAD.

The mcp integration may be seen as both a blessing and a curse but tbh, it’s very interesting :) and hopefully as folks post and comment on more models that are generated with it, we can get a better training set.
I actually still use the freecad gui because it’s cheaper but I can totally see how someone new might just wanna use the MCP.
Ty! I will give it a shot. I last did 2 years ago.
