You are blaming the players instead of the game. It's not their fault that they have to do that. If that gets them a good life. That doesn't mean there aren't people who genuinely care about their craft and want to be better architects. I used to work on the Windows kernel, my manager said "no one ends up on this team by mistake ". That's why systems (infra / embedded etc ) have a higher rate of people who truly enjoy it joining. Because if you don't it's going to be a hard time.

I'm not blaming the players but as an observer, I'm merely sharing my experience working for one of the BigCos for a few years and seeing the "trends" in both Blind and in the office. > It's not their fault that they have to do that. If that gets them a good life. No complain here. Good for them. > That doesn't mean there aren't people who genuinely care about their craft and want to be better architects. Minorities. Unlike the past. > That's why systems (infra / embedded etc ) have a higher rate of people who truly enjoy it joining. I'm on Infra. Most of my peers who are working on Infra are older people (35-40+ years old) with purpose. Most younger folks prefer "mobile" or "app" teams.
