Interesting contrasting view. And you are right, we should be professionals.

But on the other hand, if you consider it as a project triangle approach, you're given "Well-designed UI, maintainable code, cheap: pick two"

And as professionals, we want to express our clients' vision as much as possible, so we have to make a balance between having good code and the budget that the client gave us. It's not really the fault of our tools and technologies, but we do try to continually improve those tools so that we can provide the best service.
