But there is absolutely no chance of the utility ever matching the utility we can get using grown-ass adult tools out of game. That's my point.
Anything that can be implemented within the existing structure of the game would automatically outmatch standalone third-party software, as long as it is implemented correctly. Your assertion that an external solution is always better is incorrect, and ignores the option of integration of existing technologies. That would not only provide a superior in-game experience, but also allow for use of said technology outside of the game client.

That's why there's this totally awesome and up-to-date in game browser, right? 
Is it really so difficult to quote the entire section?

You know, I'd really like an interactive, 3D, VIVE compatible add-on that allows for real time fleet management. Imagine being able to slip on your headset and see the battlefield. Be able to drag and drop ships into fleets which would then either warp pilots to each other or send a command to do so, and then be able to drag and drop those fleets to systems. Integrate it with cynosural fields and bam, a proper fleet commander. Super sexy, and functional, especially for null sec alliances. Heck, Vive group chats with fleet sub-commanders would be ultra super sexy.

I'm going to mock something up over Christmas, see what CCP think of it.

I think people say they want WiS, because its not there and their EVE experience didn't start with it. If it had WiS from the start, I think we'd all be talking about how to bypass it completely.
Has everyone forgotten what happened when Captains Quarters first came out? You'd dock, and immediately be forced out of your ship, out of your pod, and onto that little balcony overlooking the dock. People went utterly batpoop crazy (and for good reason) until CCP swiftly backtracked. Walking in Stations is a fine idea in theory, but if you take even the most cursory look at it from a technology standpoint, or from a funding standpoint for that matter, then the whole thing collapses completely.
Would I love to be able to leave that broom cupboard we have? Damn straight I would. Would I like CCP to spend god knows how much money and time developing it, only for it to have almost zero purpose beyond literally walking around? No. No I would not. I'd much rather they push the spaceships part of the game as far as technology allows first. If they want to do WiS after that, I'll back them all the way.
