Theory:
Software architects are the middle management of development.

Reasoning:
So they do the least damage to the application.

Inspiration for theory:
Re-redoing a couple web services at work that were previously redone by a dude who's now an architect. OMFG. Bloat, duped everything, and logic that's turned exactly 180 degrees from what it should be. You'll notice I said "redone" because source control says they were originally implemented correctly.

Thoughts?

I think you have to eat Taco Bell hard shell tacos within about 10 minutes or the shells start getting too soft.

I'm a database architect. So, I think architects are the heart and soul of everything. :)
It's not me, it's someone else.
