Let's put this into a non-3D graphics professional/programmer like myself.
I still haven't learned normals to any great extent beyond knowing they exist. How hard is this concept? How much extra math overhead would be needed in order to author a part? Is this something easily automated? How hard would it be to back convert the entire library? My concern is that if parts authoring is even more cumbersome than it is now then part submissions will plummet even more than they already have.
