Yes, that's my point. There's way more uncertainty in trying to bring a new drug to market or build a new bridge than creating yet another CRUD app, yet somehow they are any able to break these efforts into tasks that can be estimated and tracked and many software engineers think they should be exempt from any accountability to schedule or budget.

And do you think those things are delivered on schedule any more often than software projects?

Take a look at the top of this thread and see what we're talking about.

The fact that people in many industries are not good at estimating doesn't mean that it's impossible in software development specifically and uniquely, as was originally claimed.
