That's the problem.

People no longer understand Accountability.

If I sign off on something; no matter how it was made, it's my ass on the line. If I trust a shyster, and sign off on junk, then I walk the plank, not the shyster.

TL;DR: the process matters less than the result (although good results come from good processes). If someone is known for reliably producing good results, then their personal brand becomes a valuable currency. Classic stuff.

The tech industry has become so tied up with producing junk, that it has atrophied its sense of integrity.
