Nothing wrong with being excited by the progress made but I think engineers (well, especially myself) tend to be critical of things because it is in our nature.

Nothing wrong with being excited by the progress made but I think engineers (well, especially myself) tend to be critical of things because it is in our nature. We see what they could be, not what they are. I think vocalizing how bad the current situation feels is the only path to improvement. You seem convinced that things will get better. I don't think all of us are that optimistic (and I am generally an optimist!).
