The strength and spirit of Blender's community is unparalleled. The GPL license allows you to use Blender and modify it for whatever purpose you want, allowing anyone to freely contribute to its ecosystem.

>both have nodes so they are the same
that's like arguing that a VW is exactly like a Ferrari because both have wheels. houdini has several times the sheer amount of different nodes that blender has, and not only are there more, but the nodes that do exist have been heavily optimized through years of refinement.
especially when you're dealing with procedural modeling and simulations, optimization is key.
in general, blender also tends to half-ass all the features it steals - just look at the half-assed modifier system that is a joke compared to the original of 3ds max or the unbearable zbrush clone sculpting with abysmal performance.
just so you dense fucker get it once and for all:
BLENDER IS NOT A SUBSTITUTE FOR PROFESSIONAL SOFTWARE. IT IS A FREEWARE INTRO TO WHAT KIND OF TOOLS YOU NEED TO LEARN IF YOU WANT TO GET INTO 3D MODELING.
a 100$ used quadcore is not the same as a 20.000$ workstation just because they both have a similar pc-case. a VW is not a Ferrari. the 1$ wine you buy for cooking is not a chardonnay. blender is not houdini.

a $20k workstation is not used by your average worker in the industry who makes $55k a year, idiot
everything in blender has the potential to be a "node" because you can expose it in the code and recompile in less than 2 minutes on a 12900k. I've made many many blender forks and exposed and made new nodes in C++. This is how open source software is meant to be used.

yeah, an established, perfected piece of highly professional software will be gone soon because some piece of indian freeware copied 20% of its functionality with 5% of the performance and no stability.
also 3.5k is a lot of money for Hollywood to simulate comically complex scenes or Rockstar designing the layout of gta 6 procedurally. who cannot picture the following scene in their head?

This. I use blender for concepting and previs, Maya as a keystone of the whole workflow, Houdini for simulations and particle effects, and 20+ other pieces of software for every little thing that needs to be done to make a video. Arguing whether any of these tools are 'better' is indicative that the person is very new to actually making shit.
