Actually, that kind of makes sense. But if that is the case, then the lack of live symmetry puzzles me even more as I can see no other reason for the lack of symmetry tools. The direction that Eovia is taking with Carrara is courting people who you might classify as character modelers. Pretty much every book on the subject covers symmetry modelling in the first chapter of instruction/introduction.
The thing is, Carrara has symmetry modelling. Just not live. Updates take place in the Assembly room instead of the Modelling room where it would be more efficient. It also lacks the ability to automatically weld the halves. Make the symmetrical duplicate show in the VM. Write a script that welds the halves automatically without triangulating the model. Done.
Personally, I don't want Carrara to be a clone of Hexagon. I just want it to have certain features I feel are essential.
