Thanks for highlighting such an important topic! This discussion will be beneficial for many in the software development industry. While software architecture is often considered an advanced subject, it is still covered at a basic level in many undergraduate degrees. It is important for any developer aiming for long-term growth. If your current job role or designation restricts you from thinking and contributing like an architect and instead enforces you to merely implementing and maintaining software, writing code, and solving day-to-day development problems, it's time to reconsider your career path.
