Well to an extent it's failure of engineering.

The best engineers are not code monkeys. But people who can map the business domain to code perfectly.

Given this is HN, we've all seen engineers who make business impact. some had degrees, some didn't. And we've seen engineers - who complicate matters while not actually shipping usable features , but doing things the GRRM martin way of plucking weeds. \

maybe step away from the mega corps and notice impact engineers have on a tech company's business direction.
