OP, you're selling your tool to the wrong people. HN is not the crowd. This is for core-engineers who want to get value out of coding.
Find people who pay the $1000/yr to use 1 tool in Matlab, and start pulling them away.

It is less so OP's tool, and more so the way they presented it.
I won't discourage them away from SWEs. Instead, I want to encourage them to sell to core engineers. I was a MechE for the longest time too. And this is a great Matlab alternative. In fact, I was exactly that MechE who was using HN to feel like a part of the tech community.
The top post is phrased as a sell. But, if I'd read it during my MechE days then it would've gone right over my head.
