You totally got my point wrong. I said exactly the opposite. I believe that scientists must spend enough time to become good computer programmers -- they must neither leave the task to others nor can they underestimate the amount of difficulty involved in the software. How it is possible that people managed to read that much and hear exactly the inverse of my central thesis, I don't understand at all. Perhaps everyone just hears what they want to.
