I also like it, in the same way I like DIN even though the author considers DIN to be better designed. I have, like the author, often seen this font when it's carved into metal, and I suppose the fact that it's on metal helps evoke that feeling of industry at its best, like a well oiled machine. I also instinctively associate it with the post-WWII period when technology seemed to be progressing faster than today and when technology was unequivocally a good thing.
