Agreed.

I disagree.
As I see it, the EDA tool functions as a conduit between the model and the 
user, for parameters of type Model_Specific. That is, the EDA tool provides the 
necessary GUI interface elements to allow the user to make certain selections, 
regarding the model's proprietary behavior. How does the user make intelligent 
decisions, in this regard? Presumably, by reading the User's Guide that came 
with the model from the silicon vendor.
