Wrong! The Ophthalmologist, and Priest were also trying to solve the problem. That joke, which is old because it is so good, has a deeper message.

Priest: We're frustrated.
Ophthalmologist: The firefighters are blind.
Engineer: The golf course is running inefficiently.
"Have you turned it off and on again?"
(Yes, restricting them to only playing at night may cause scheduling conflicts but it's a joke and of course omits such details.)
And the joke here is being used to illustrate a point (that the engineer thought of a solution when no one else did), I'm using it to point out that the engineer offered no solution while keeping to the general disregard for others in their simple work-arounds.
Just hold it differently.
It's an idea, but it's not an example of "solving the problem." It solves his problem, but probably creates problems for others.
