I completely agree. The trouble is we're so far away from this that all the people who learnt from a few tutorials and never read any books will try to defeat it at every step. They're here in these very comments.

I get that it's possible to build working software without a certificate, in much the same way as someone can do their own electrics. But is it up to standard and safe for the next guy to work on? This is why we have standards.
