Nothing wrong with this roadmap but I'd suggest that this and similar ones are squarely in the "trade" category of formation, where the focus is on a large number of practical topics instead of a more solid grounding in the fundamentals, that mostly dont even concern themselves with practical dat science - what I would call the "university" approach, but maybe not in the sense of a modern university.

For work as a tradesperson, it is worth only focusing on the practical application- and I'm saying this genuinely. But I think it should be clearly distinguished from the different kinds of lasting benefits that a more solid fundamental education provides, including the flexibility to adapt.

I'm very biased here, having studies Electrical Eng and CS before modern ML was remotely mainstream, and comparing my conceptual understanding and what I learned in school about math and linear algebra with the way things are understood by tradespeople with far more knowledge of modern tools than me. So crotchety old person- maybe, but I'm happy I went to university.
