I ran a design team, and many really struggled with Sketch -> Figma transition, and took a long time.

I welcome many of the new features. It's great for designers who are more technically oriented, though enterable input fields would be nice.

I do wonder how non-technical designers are going to feel. The learning curve is definitely going higher.

I'm worried about the rather pricey per / seat cost. There are far more developers than engineers at most organizations, and this is really going to hurt the licensing cost. Definitely Adobe bean counters flexing its muscle.

How do you differentiate between a developer and an engineer?

Fairly sure they mistyped, and "engineers" should be "designers". Otherwise that is indeed a very confusing statement.

There's usually multiple developers/engineers for every designer on a team, so bringing them in to the product with features that require full privileges would certainly be a lucrative move for Figma.
