get rid of parametric tools

look at how onshape, solid edge does it. they define connections so when you move something the rest of the part follows.

I don't think this has something to do with the tool being parametric but more with how the tool was designed with regard to functionality.

Some additional "intelligence" for connected objects would be nice, not just for parametric tools but for all objects.

That being said, e.g. Visio has those smart connector lines that move along with the linked object and sometimes it works like a charm and sometimes it creates a big mess from all the "intelligence" and resulting jumping around of segments so it really comes down to implementation and what you are doing/creating whether it works well or not.
