Weapons engineering is also engineering but I don't want to work for arms dealers like Anduril.

I do have a sense of morality and know where I stand in terms of power dynamics.

These however exist and function, with or without my consent, and are less black and white than the weapons dealing metaphor. For example, a single mother in such an organization, if able to operate with influence, creates opportunities for her family and for her children’s futures. Nothing to do with the morality of arm dealing.

On the contrary; it's the essence of ethics.

Character is what you are in the dark.
