Notes -
3d and grid based are orthogonal concepts.
Captain of Industry is both grid based, for building, and fully 3d. They might even add on tunneling (I'd love it).
Vehicles have bounds defined by the grid, but they don't move on it.
You know, I was actually considering going to the forums to bitch to ask for a FPS perspective, or more precisely, being able to zoom in really close and really down - it'd cost them not much because trying to stick another conveyor belt in a big mess of other belts, from a bird's eye view is pretty hard. Despite the snapping code being very,very good!
I mean, I like grids because we're not neanderthals and lacking incredible memory we need things neatly laid out if we're not to keep getting sidetracked looking for stuff. Neanderthals didn't put their stuff in any sense of order whatsoever, suggesting either improbable stupidity (bulk of our ancestors wasn't likely much smarter at the time), or more likely, far better memory. Having to align stuff is a pain.
