That's why it is justifiable to treat an engineer as a tool ? And since you brought it up, let's start one on science/engineering solutions vs. management. Obviously you think the later is harder, I disagree.
I also didn't say management is harder than engineering, I said "more constrained". I believe that it's harder to be a good manager than a good engineer, but it's harder to be an average engineer than an average manager. And that again comes from constraints: a good manager tries to do right by everybody, while an average manager doesn't care. You have the option of ignoring your constraints in both professions, but an engineer that ignores his constraints won't make any progress at all, while a manager that ignores his constraints can sometimes muddle through until all of his people quit.
