You forget to mention that an engineer can start working right after finishing school, but to get even an entry level real banking job (and word real here means that 99% of tellers, bond peddlers, retail account managers do not qualify,) you need years of prior experience learning arts of the big finance world: doin blowjobs, political prostitution, ass and shoe licking, incentivised sales, creative accounting and such
FYI Mozilla C-levels issue themselves ~$500k salaries. It is this kind of "non-profit". All they do is not to get more users, but more funding and sponsors.
When I was working in an electronics OEM, I witnessed such tendency: the bigger and more reputable the buyer brand is, the more hellbent they are on the most ridiculous cost saving measures.
Conversations like one below was happening pretty much with all an every American buyer
"-how thin can you make the plastic on this part?
- 0.8mm but I would really would not recommend that...
- guy interrupts, "can you make it thinner than 0.8?"
- yes, but...
- Amazon idiot interrupts again, "how much will it save us per piece?"
That was a sourcing project for the first Amazon ebook reader wallwart. We also did the cover and sleeve cases for them.
We did things that were to bigger extent more stupid than bad on extent of material scale: putting diodes in parallel, doing wire fuses, using leds in a diode role, making cases out of PLA or even crappier plastics, intentionally using recycled li-ion cells, aluminium wiring and stuff like that... All on explicit demand of a customer.
The biggest ever saving any client had through any of those measures was 6.36 US cents per piece.
I find it ironic that in per country breakdown of project delivery rates, Chinese projects are the most succesful. It os true for the most mid tier projects, and it comes to 95% for projects above 1m

McKinsey - they rent analysts at $1k an hour. They are serious company
Big, prismatic LiFePo cells are cheaper than li-ion.
You can buy a 1kwH module made from them for the same $200 with all protection, load balancing circuitry, and cooling ports.

You can get 18650 as cheap as USD 1.5 in retail quantities
A mid-sized OEM can buy them at 0.6~0.7
Big ones at "material cost + 10%"
If Tesla sized company buys them at $1 and they get them rated at 3.0 mAh. 1 kwH costs them $90

You may not believe, but they also have a patent on a vibrator. Just hope it's not a male one
Have enemy rain over enemy roads, turn them into muddy mess. Enemy tanks will stuck and sink in mud.
