Guess Ford doesn't use that program when they designed the 5.4 Triton starter. 3rd bolt is on top and BARELY accessible with the magic combination of sockets & extensions.Boeing doesn't build prototypes anymore, straight from CAD to production. They have a computer model of a hand/arm; and insure that all the parts of the plane can be accessed by a human. They probably do not consider degree of difficulty.

I remember a few years ago a tail gunner in a B-52 lost Comms with the pilots , or anyone in the cabin … he literally thought they were going to crash. He punched out …..thing was , nothing wrong with the plane
its still happing todayMany years ago I used to work on Mirage fighter jets designed by Marcel Dassault. One of the jobs that was always very hard was removing the water separator in the aircon system. The maintenance manual basically said remove the panel, disconnect the fittings and remove the separator.
It never came out without an almighty struggle. One day when I had a bit of spare time I dug out the original French language manuals and checked the instructions, What they actually said was "Utilizing the natural elasticity of the airframe, remove the separator". So they knew it did not fit through the hole and needed lots of leverage.
Turns out that the University students that were paid to translate the manuals from French to Australian were pretty well overpaid.
