For an engineer my work may seem to be inferior work. Evaluated from a
public policy point of view your work in this area would seem inferior as
you don't seem to recognize that software can be far more than just an
solution to an engineering problem. For some types of software whether
something is inferior from an engineering standpoint is largely
irrelevant.
Well, engineering isn't just about standards. Good engineering is making
something that works to specifications of functionality and resource
usage. I would hope that your software fulfills those goals!

much liberty than to those attending too small a degree of it.
