Teachers have to be licensed and keep up on licensing.
Plumbers. Electricians. Lawyers. Doctors. Hell, I have to get a license to run my own business.
Why shouldn't software come with a branch for licenses if you're working with sensitive data?
We're going the other way: now any random vibe coded slop is the norm.
Normalize "vibe-plumbing"
Both plumbing and wiring are “easier” in a way than programming-as they’ll violently and potentially explosively let you know if you messed up; whereas programming lets you be blissfully unaware until you see your data plastered across the nightly news.

It is, it just usually results in immediate calls to actual plumbers without anyone else finding out. Or it’s hidden behind some new drywall and paint until a different occupant finds out.
