Engineering is horseshit

Engineers are not usually characterized as "expressive creatures", it has nothing to do with pushing pixels to make things pretty and is actually about problem solving, and how does debating "look & feel" apply to engineers in the sense that it applies to designers ? Almost nothing in that article applies as a criticism of engineering so the point that you can replace [graphic] design with engineer fails.

Without engineering you have no product. And, as demonstrated by numerous applications, especially in the corporate world, you can have products without any input from a [graphic] designer or consideration for graphics design.

There is definitely a case to be made about over-engineering, doing engineering for engineering sake, and ignoring other aspects of building a product, but this certainly isn't it so I'm ether missing something or this post is ?
