As a person who tends to come from the technical side, this doesn't surprise me. Without a deep understanding of the subject, how would you come up with an accurate formula or algorithm to meet your needs? And with lighting in a physical space, that would be an arts major, not a math or computing major.

Most of my best work (which I'll grant is limited) came from working with experts in their field and producing systems that matched their perspectives. I don't think this diminishes his accomplishments, bit rather emphasizes the importance of seeking out those experts and gaining an understanding of the subject matter you're working with to produce better results.

Yeah. I have a STEM degree and work in a STEM field, and it's a bummer to see just how... not well rounded people's educations are. Otherwise intelligent people that seem incapable of critical thinking.
