It's not so much "how I see it" as it is "how it is" and you don't seem to deny that.
I understood that you prefer not to work on the child-killing devices the first time. Nonetheless all the other "cool science markets" still help your employer make those child-killing devices.
While the sausage will keep being made, I can actively choose not to be the butcher and I'm having a hard time respecting people gushing about their work on the non-butchering side of the same company.
No, you have it backwards, the child killing devices enable my employer to do the cool science markets.
Revenue from child killing devices and related patents pays for the science research. And as it turns out, a lot of those patents also work really well for the cool life-saving science stuff.
