It will enable creation of models by you of devices that have no characterization yet, in
a way that promises to work more smoothly.  It will allow better description of
mechanical inertias rather than transforming those into a fake electrical
analog...for instance in MEMS devices.  The easier creation of your own models
will help in modeling transmission lines and interfaces between MEMS, electronics,
and custom printed electronics either ceramic multichip modules or the newer room temperature
printable kinds.   Its for your true custom stuff.   For the really creative part.
