Don't know about that Alex, if you were a good mechanic you would be comfortable using lots of different tools, probably across more than one discipline too (mechanical, electrical etc). You could make the same analogy with lots of occupations. Is programming much different? Each tool is designed for a specific purpose. Imagine a mechanics tool that could fix any car problem!
Anyway, good luck James.
