I absolutely disagree. Some things in programming exist to bring products to market, but many things in programming only exist to bring programmers to market. That is a terrible and striking difference that results ultimately from an absence of ethics. Actions/decisions that exist only to discard ethical considerations serve only two objectives: 1) normalization of lower competence, 2) narcissism. It does not matter which of those two objectives are served, because the conclusions are the same either way.
