I agree with you and this is curious.  It sounds like what you are saying
is that systems engineering can't make up for individual deficiencies if
anything.  What is needed if I understand you correctly is great
programmers to be left virtually alone to do their thing.  Sounds a lot
like an open source project doesn't it?
