Can't disagree with the sentiment, however this tool appears to be designed to do that job ~ just differently. It looks a long way from an adjustable, a pipe wrench or such other jack of all trades.

Certainly looks interesting and a kinder alternative to to drilling, cold chiselling and swearing damaged nuts off.
