    Question why is piranesi in navisworks?

    It just seems out of place. Was it part of the initial contract. Why would autodesk support a 3rd party software?

    All sorts of third party software is provided for. For example, Navisworks *still* reads CADWorx 2012 and earlier data natively, even though AutoDesk recently punted Intergraph's developers ADN. The ability to read virtually any 3D file format, including those not from AutoDesk, is a huge bonus for Navisworks.

    Of the 50+ file formats NavisWorks will read, that's the only one that makes you wonder why it's there?

    NavisWorks (previously Jetstream) was a product that Autodesk acquired a few years back. The original developers had a good idea. Autodesk obviously agrees with that idea and therefore purchased the product.
    Give a man AutoCad, and he'll draw you a floor plan.
    Give a man Revit and he'll build you a house.
    Give Cadmama a couple of drinks and she'll have everyone singing Rockytop!
