Hello everyone, I'm an engineering student and I would appreciate it if anyone could fill out this survey. It's to help get data for the creation of a multitool for a project. Thank you

If you are asking professional mechanics to answer this you are gonna have a bad time. They don’t reach for multi tools because they have a dedicated tool specific for what they need that will perform better and faster that fiddling with a miltitool. There is no design change that will fix this issue in a professional situation. The only caveats around this are multi tools that can increase speed or decrease effort. A ratchet or ratcheting screwdriver are a great examples but are not ubiquitous examples of being superior 100% of the time.
I am not a mechanic and even I abhore multitools.
The closest I have is a bit ratchet (small wera) as it allows me to not carry huge L-keys in torx and hex.. Smaller ones are all L-keys some short, some long.
When I used chains I had a stand-alone chain tool. I now use belts, so don’t need to carry one.
