That's an easy way to develop lessons, but seems like it would lead to a lot of cargo cult mechanisms. Especially once those people started teaching.

I've found a PhD (without work experience) is a bad sign.

I know I've hit the point several times where what I consider trivial is complex, but are message buses and events really that difficult? (And isn't event sourcing just one of the standard ways events are used?) Aren't buses covered in programming 101?
I took multiple CS classes at a top university* and I never heard about message buses or events...
Admittedly I was not a CS major and don't work in software engineering.
(To be honest, it being a top university probably decreased the probability that they would teach me practical/useful engineering practices like this. The programming classes I took were fairly focused on more theoretical concerns)
