Excellent explanation. But I think plenty of technology has been misunderstood as of late. I've been in this industry two decades, but it's only in the past 5 years that I've noticed entire teams of absolute morons entering the field and being given six figure jobs without understanding what their job even is, much less how to do it properly. (And by "properly" I mean "know what a REST API is") The industry is awash in quants who took a four week course in Python and are now called "data scientists"; backend software engineers who don't know what the fuck a 500 error is; senior developers who graduated a year ago; engineering managers who "hire DevOps"; product managers and DMs who don't know how to use Jira or run a stand-up. It's like all that's left is people who think they have "impostor syndrome" when they actually are impostors of professionals. I tried to find a new job recently, and I couldn't find a single org with at least 50% of the staff properly understanding how to do their jobs. Of course half of them were bullshit VC-funded money-bleeding terrible businesses, and the other half were fat cash cows that through their industry dominance became lazy and stupid. Maybe we just hit peak tech, and all the good teams were formed by boring companies long ago and don't have new positions open. Or maybe all the good people cashed out and retired.
