I think perhaps that it's the understanding of technical drawings that they are getting at. If you can produce good 2d drawings, then you'll be able to read them clearly too.

I learnt hand drafting skills back in my apprenticeship (1990-1994) then never used them again. It's all CAD these days. No clients that I've worked for have ever given me a hand drafted drawing. But I've seen plenty of bad cad dwgs though.
