Well, I don't think that I said it beats Blender on features. Also, for the record, I'd just like to mention that the reason that I did not count yesses-and-nos from the CGsociety table is that not all of the yes/no columns are of equivalent weight.

For instance, under the physics section, cloth, smoke, flame, and fluid simulation are all separate features, as they should be -- but under workable polygon limit, the numbers are progressive (ie, if you max out at 100,000, you get multiple "no"s, one for each higher number column, even though they are all measuring the same thing).

Which is not to suggest in any way that the comparison table is inaccurate or bad, just that it doesn't reduce to simple scores.
