Simon Rodia didn't do anything for "architecture" or "structural
engineering" - those are the province of the elite synthesists who dwell in
academia. They will analyze what gets synthesized some day. What you do for
"the Web" is manifold more significant than what anyone can ever do for
"architecture".
Those who can, do; those who can't, teach; those who can't teach, teach
teachers; those who can't teach teachers, do research; those who can't do
research, go into administration; those who can't go into administration,
get grants; those who can't get grants, choose grantees. The beat goes on.
Simon Rodia "profited" from the doing not the deed. You don't *need* the SW
for your own use - you've already got way too much information to ever
assimilate/use/disseminate/enjoy. It's just a means of whiling away our
last few fleeting hours until the grim reaper performs his grisly task.
