> They churn out a ton of programmers but very few people that are actual engineers or can carry out actual projects.

Coding is a cheap easy skill that 15-20 years old can do.

Executing and managing a project from start to finish is a rare skill that cannot be acquired in school or the internet.

Coding Monkey => Cheap and easy to find.

Coder who has successfully led and executed projects => Expensive and rare.
