I had some of those thoughts, although I think their idea is that the Leap won't be as tiring to use as the Kinect because it will detect finer movements. I bet you could slouch over with your elbow on the desk and just wiggle your fingers to do stuff.
But I do wonder about the lack of tactile feedback. Physical objects give you resistance that helps you control your actions, but for something like this you have to watch the screen and make judgments based solely on what you see.
Still, I'm sure 3D modeling with several fingers at once in three actual dimensions would be faster than with a single point using a pen or mouse or even with a few fingers on a flat screen.
