Tangent did not throw out Blender. The presentation about Blender+USD at GTC 2021 (“Blender USD Import and Rendering [S31984]”, https://gtc21.event.nvidia.com) outlines the transition to a USD pipeline that took place at Tangent. Blender, Maya, Houdini, Substance, etc were all in use simultaneously, and a fork of Cycles was the render engine of choice.
