I think DS has been abused by some people as an umbrella to not produce qualify code, yet they somehow they put themselves in higher regards in the value chain.

Hit the nail on the head here. I worked in an DevOPs/ETL team across from the data science team, all they did was write SELECT * FROM sales and complain Teradata was slow and when they got the result set they'd use "R" to SUM the column and display it with GGPLOT.
