"Competence" is defined by your results.


Indeed, for example anyone who uses the wrong tool to do the job and ends
up with leaking tubes and fittings is clearly incompetent.

Well yes, I've been cutting plastic tube with a hacksaw and deburring the
ends with a Stanley knife for ages. Never had a leaking push-fit fitting
yet. But I didn't want over-tax Dribble's brain[1].
