The eternal struggle between theory and practice, beautifully illustrated. On one side, we have the mechanical engineer who spent years learning about stress tensors and fluid dynamics, only to end up wrestling with buggy CAD software while earning less than their friends in tech. Meanwhile, the hands-on mechanic is out there fixing actual problems, immune to AI replacement (try teaching a neural network to feel when a timing belt is about to snap), and probably has better stories at the bar. Four years of thermodynamics equations just to design a part that the mechanic will eventually modify anyway because "it works better this way." The irony of engineering education is exquisite.
