Sounds like they’re talking about devs

Because systemtic problems are often better explained through structural relationships rather than personal failings?

I don't disagree with the point that a lot of software that isn't pressured to be shipped quickly still ends up following bad practices, but I don't think we can ignore that the quality issues in software aren't also found all over in many industries because of profit motives?

Because by that rationale all industries are circuses filled with clowns. It's incentives not ineptitude. It's a clumsy take.
