No, more the kind of people who think there should be a "coding license", guilds, or similar. There may be a place for certifications individually but universality is folly. I meant professionalization in the sense of trying to erect barricades. As for code quality it is depends upon the domain, scale, and situation. Some things are objectively bad but even bad may be complex. Hard tested COBOL legacy code that was old when the current veterans started may be hard to comprehend, close to immutable but utterly reliable for instance.
