"The Bulk of Software Engineering in 1XXX is Just Plumbing"
When was it not?
What were these guys thinking?
The vast majority of software is taking real world applications and dealing with the 'kind of a mess' of situations that can arise.
Even login/credentials can be a minor pain.
Doing it clearly and succinctly is the challenge.
Though it's often more 'solving problems' than 'building something' we should maybe think of ourselves more as construction workers than research scientists.
Upon graduation my skills were filled with so many holes I suggest that every CS grad takes a 3-month long 'power course' wherein the get all the basics, best practices and common tooling down.
