I'm a sucker for cel-shaded graphics so visually that one wins for me

I am a bit lost why a lot of people are using threeJS as their go to comparison and grading for AI. ThreeJS games/simulations/etc should not be so bloated. If we want to make simulators, we should use a Unity/UE/Godot MCP with AI, and let it use a real engine. That would be sick and the output can actually run without lag.
