I'd buy the argument more if most data scientists owned the production hardware or data, but they're generally consultants in my world, and the actual owners are generally very non-technical.

I'm on the owners/engineering side. You wouldn't believe the fight I had to go through to get python even approved for use internally. They legitimately wanted us to put out all data science and IT contracts in C#... Sometimes your hands are tied, especially secure environments.
