As I see it, this discussion has little to do with culture, nations or

We are all equal, some have more knowledge than others.
No Roger, when it comes to designing systems and writing code, we are not all
equal. Programming can be taught, confined within some school of practice be it
agile, structured, or whatever. But programming also is a talent, and while most
people can learn to write a simple functional program, like music or dancing the
difference between functional, competent, and exceptional is one of talent.
Great code not only works, but is readable and maintainable.
"It works" is necessary but not sufficient.
