Agreed it's a good thing. Writing software today is still a slog that turns into a spaghetti bowl without focused intent by highly skilled devs. I think most devs realize this and really want there to be something better, and the only way to find something good is to find a lot of the bad around it first.

I like the thought experiment of adding a new persisted/editable field to an entity in a web app, if you've done full-stack you know all the layers that need to be touched to accomplish this and how lame most of the work turns out to be. After doing that 20 times while iterating, any dev worth their salt starts to wonder why it sucks so bad still and how it could be made better, and some will actually try.
