Plumbers and bricklayers do essential work. The problem with managing sociotechnical systems through the tech/engineering lens is that the ultimate societal goals tend to get lost as the job becomes less and less prioritised by politics and social issues, but more and more by technical optimisations of the system.

So tech ppl need to either start condidering the ethics of choices they make, and involve sociopolitical stakeholders more.
