I liked and. purchased Lightwave, but it just couldn't keep up with the industry. The one feature it had that so many other modeling programs were missing, was a way to snap a vertex to an axis plane when moving it. Other apps had to switch to an orthogonal view, but Lightwave could stay in the user view. Such a small thing, but was such a UX time saver.
I think Blender does it, too: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/69855152/blender-move-ve...
