I tried Blender a while ago. I didn't find the UI such a problem, but 
there is an operational complexity that requires a LOT of practice. Some 
of it may have had to do with the depiction of a 3D space on a 2D 
display, but I found that selecting control points did not work 
predictably or consistently, which led to much frustration -- there is 
enough of a challenge with the UI learning curve, but to add operational 
frustrations was more than I wanted to mess with.
