I completely agree, I think we're saying the same thing. I guess I'm just emphasizing that it's hard to believe that such a person is even a good data scientist. Throwing everything over the wall is denying yourself a lot of valuable lessons about data science.

Odd take to be honest. Like suggesting you cannot believe someone is a good materials scientist, because their CAD/mechanical design skills
are not up to par with a mechanical engineer.
Not sure how CAD skills are relevant for a materials scientist, but the ability to put models into production is very relevant to data science.
If you always throw over the wall, you probably don't understand how results that look good in a Jupyter notebook can easily fall apart in the real world.
