I bet you could make it work, if you wanted something like sketch-up, where 
much/most of your drawing is based on relationships with other parts of the 
drawings. In Sketchup, you can (for example) cut the tip off a corner by 
starting an arc, pointing at the edge, moving to the other edge and letting 
it snap to the diagonal, moving the midpoint until it snaps to being tangent 
with the edges, and then taking the new face and pushing it back until it 
snaps flush with the back face of the block you're trimming.

And heck, voice recognition for precision. :-)
