I am afraid the simple answer is that software is going to the dogs.
Originally people paid you to make stuff work. Now they pay you to fit 
some corporate ideal in terms of development methodology,  moral 
ideology, and political alignment.

I used to like playing Bridge, There is a good online site, but its full 
of Americans who have been taught to play the game in one way only.

I opened, my partner responded and I simply said 'six spades' It was 
obvious what he had, given what I held, there was no need to go through 
the process of establishing it and revealing any weakness to the opposition.

We made the contract but the table's host removed me for 'not playing 
properly'!

I am afraid that the Not So Smart give more value to doing things the 
way they were taught than achieving any actual results.

Yesterday some pointy-head decreed that the London Fire Service were 
misogynistic and institutionally racist....

...No mention was made of their ability, or otherwise, to *put out fires*.

One is tempted to recommend the 'Peter Principle',  and, more chillingly 
Joseph Tainter's 'Collapse of complex societies'.
