I wish I could agree with that, but how does what we as software engineers do differs from the building or bridge engineers, surely they don't build bridges or building on what "they" perceive to be the right way.
Surely there must be some sort of canonical form to implementation, otherwise we are not software makers and just duct taping hodge podge together. Every (software) system will gravitate towards maximum entropy and minimum order and the programmer's job is to stablised it by imposing order and decreasing the entropy. Having a structure for defining how a system should be implemented would reduce the number of possible permutation and hence decrease the entropy. I believe a systematic approach to defining and implementation is necessary other wise we are just adding to total sum of junk in the world.
