Hi author,

I think you've written an excellent article, and also that you would be well served by ignoring the comments on it.

Some people here feel you've called them entitled. I think you made a useful nuanced point about how engineering looks to others, but the people who feel insulted don't see it that way and some of them are going to be quite harsh about it.

Those who interpret your article as an attack are not going to be swayed, so I'm just here to say you have my respect if you choose to disengage.
