Yes. But you cannot hire topnotch guys for every project. It is all about
engineering vs art. Engineers are average guys. The tools they handle must
fit an average guy. How otherwise could you predict the costs and quality
of a product?
[Yes, SW engineering is not a proper engineering yet]

No. Reusability is the only way to move forward. Complexity will continue
growing and there is no other means to fight it than per reuse.
