Are GURPS Tech Books released in wrong order / badly planned?

Speaking of which, I think by now my Unity-fu is strong enough that I could make such a 3D tool if given enough incentive. But answer to me honestly: would you really want to play such a thing?

The problem with any 3D program is that the interface is generally 2D. Even most FPS are only 3D in a limited sense.
