The devs are not incompetent. Management is.
I think devs can also be incompetent
Devs can be "incompetent" but unlike management development generally has code reviews to catch problems, maintain standards and give those "incompetent" developers feedback so the can improve. Also one incompetent developer is just one incompetent developer, there's only so much they can fuck up. Managers tend to have no oversight while essentially having at the very least one team of developers they can incompetently lead to develop shit. The higher the incompetence the more damage they can do. Just look at Twitter, the entire company is being driven straight into ground because the one guy at the very top is a moron
I don't know enough to be able to argue with you about that. You're probably right I guess.
