There's a lot of assumptions in this comment about (a) what people want (b) what people are willing to do (c) the conceptual level at which "integration" can and should take place.

Look at other tools (non-computational). The story there doesn't look much like what you're proposing. Maybe there's agreement on lumber and thread sizing, but in general, tools do not interoperate much. Whatever level of integration they do have comes mostly from having to interface with the physical universe. In addition, most people don't know how to use most tools, and things are broadly left to experts ("tradesmen").
