Come on who defines qualified professional??? Of course it will depend on how
many expensive slips of paper you have (degrees). History is full of great
idea's that where at first rejected by the "qualified professionals". If the
car maker's only explaination is "it isn't done that way" there is no reason
why you should except that for an answer. There may be a hundred reasons why
SL might be a bad idea but you didn't name any you just stated that you where
a qualified professional and that pions arn't allowed to question you! This
isn't the dark ages where the pope was infallible, people no matter how well
trained or professional can still make mistakes and many times it takes an
outsider to see them. If you had brought the idea of Risc upto the "qualified
professionals" in the VAX development team, I wonder what the answer would have
been?
