This used to be true but I can't say that it is still true today. While
LW/Modeler is diferent in that to make a grouped object you must create in
Modeler and assemble in Layout it does have lots of tools that Imagine doesn't
have. Not only the basic features (which all work) but also includes the ARexx
scripts that just about anyone can write for Modeler.
Imagine has some advantages over LW as well like a more capable Bones feature
but my biggest problem with Imagine is that the rendering quality wasn't there
when compared to LW. The last version of Imagine I have is 3.0 and it still has
bugs from years ago. While I am sure that these problems will be fixed some day
I am not willing to wait around.
