As much as single things in max works fine, whole application is completely out of logic for a lot of people and simply don't work. And suite is actually pushing people to learn 3 different tools, to switch daily to 3 different workflows and logic to achieve what actually can be done in single application. Every single switch from application to application in a day is taking time and slowing workflow. Not only time to switch but time to switch mentally to new shortcuts, UI, workflow... Idea to specialize max, maya and Softimage and then to use each in only couple areas is pure and simple idiotic and just an attempt to get more money selling 3 applications instead of one. Simple as that. No one can give good argument that constantly going to different applications can be faster than sticking inside your main application and pushing project.
