Math and physics are beautiful and tasteful. So there's a liberal arts-ish component of you'd take a fine arts class as part of your liberal arts component of education to develop at least some minimal aspect of good taste and common sense as part of your education.
Its a very vocational list in general and needs some liberal arts, not just to make life worth living, but to develop good taste as a workers tool. There is a slight glimmer in the list where its advised to learn a little technical communication. However learning a little graphics arts wouldn't hurt. Or a little political history might help navigate corporate structures. Or a little persuasive public speaking for those presentations. Or some art so your diagrams and whiteboard talks don't look awful.
Yet going the opposite direction, if we're currently graduating degree holders with a very small minimum of liberal arts who none the less can't fizzbuzz, then this hyper vocational extremely large curriculum isn't going to fit, or we're going to graduate people who can't fizzbuzz and fail to integrate e to the x and also fail to appreciate Hamlet in its original Klingon. Not sure failing even more generalist stuff is better overall outcome. Maybe it could be a 6 or so year long vocational apprenticeship. Or maybe if high school education didn't generally suck. Maybe.
