Well if you are so fond to AutoCAD, why just purchase and use it?
I think that AutoCAD is a very good program.
But it has a few disadvantages.
First, it is paid and expensive

Secondly, there are no versions for Linux users yet

There are copyrights and other licensing issues, that prevent for example the same look.
OK. Let's assume that there is a copyright on exactly the
same interface.
But this does not mean that no one can use the ribbon interface!
There are many programs with a ribbon interface, including among
CAD.
Here is one example, the
BricsCAD program:

Some programs with a push-button interface eventually switched to a ribbon interface.
Remember at least
Microsoft Office 2007.
And a few years ago,
LibreOffice also started developing its own ribbon interface.
Therefore, I think it would be good if users could vote for how they see the
LibreCAD interface in the future.
