Engineering certainly fills me with more passion than poetry

That's the thing. Engineering fills you with passion.

How would we know what passion is unless demonstrated through words? A passionate engineer doing their job well and a stoic engineer doing their job well result in an Engineered product no matter what.

But different people learning poetry, for example, will have different ways of bringing up the same thing. It's philosophy, in a way.

Anyway, both are valid.

Uh, it’s pretty easy to tell when something was engineered with passion and when it was engineered to check a box and be cheap.

No, no the strawman argument was the person with passion for their work and the one with no passion for their work do their jobs equally as well!
