This is actually a non starter but if it makes you happy continue to keep watch for the next few decades to see what happens

They were originally from policy making departments or from non-tech roles in other public service organizations. They were possibly given the roles due to their public service experiences back then. It is extremely hard to get rid of them.

It's obvious why u have a shitty tech ecosystem.
