Maya has a very limited fallout / soft select but that is about it. Just in case you have not figured it out yet modo's modeling tools set is nearly ten years beyond Maya's. In that Maya has not really updated it's modeling tool set for almost ten years.
3DS Max has a more comprehensive modeling tool set then Maya and Modo's modeling tools are superior to Max. When it comes to modeling Maya is on the bottom of the totem pole (when comparing modeling tools).
Autodesk and Alias before them site Maya has better Animation and Dynamics and that is where they have invested most of their energy for the last ten years, as far as I have seen. Also, many studios have a metric butt ton of specialized scripts and very deep pockets so they can buy addons like Nex and pay programmers to write modeling scripts. However, even with Nex Maya's modeling tool set is very antiquated.
