A large portion of most professions is basically debugging and reverse engineering :) (including non-technical ones, like psychology or law)

And that tells us that it's a general skill worth teaching in schools. Regardless of the profession a student ends up in, this skill is likely to be useful.

The whole parable of Chesterton's fence hinges on that: reverse-engineer the weird thing to understand it, before attempting to alter it.

It's true for law, but for psychology I found that most practicioners use most of their time to sell the reason of their whole existence, so it seems closer to sales.
