This is managements fault, not the engineers fault.

We have to implement the requirements we are given. If we don’t, we get fired and they hire someone else who will do it.

If we were licensed, any replacement would be similarly ethically bound to refuse and that tactic wouldn't work.

who's doing the licensing and do they share my ethics?
