And those lacking proper education have written even more, if we are now going to start counting.

Even if this is true, the thread here is discussing throwing engineers who write vulns in prison. We'd all be in jail in that world, degree or not.

I'm picking up a very defensive vibe about your own degree here. Are you worried about getting replaced?

Not all at, just fully disagree the misuse of engineering word, in some countries, by people that most of the time didn't set foot in college, or if they did, the degree had nothing to do with engineering.

In some countries, that's a rational, deliberate decision.

Take a look at école 42 just next door to you [1].

It breaks all pre-conception of a certified french engineering school. You don't even need to have finished high school to apply! At most they'll be restricted out of governmental jobs, a drop in the bucket of EU jobs.

This is a very silicon-valley like way of thinking : Disrupting the incumbent who cannot adapt to new thoughts. Maybe you should be afraid, because change in on the way.
