Peter, but asphalt is only one part of a road. Surveying, engineering,
etc. area all much more important.

And while "code" is essential, it is not what makes software good. The
best line of code is meaningless if it doesn't solve a problem in the
world. for code to be required, there needs to be reason, relevancy,
etc.
