You haven't worked with a lot of Chinese engineers, have you? https://www.chinaexpatsociety.com/culture/the-chabuduo-mindset
I love how they reinvent a universal experience as uniquely Chinese
They stole half assing it from the West!
Just discovered I was Chinese all this time!

Not as bad as you make it out to be, and I actually worked in the US with more Chinese engineers than US engineers.
I didn't down vote you. I'm not saying all Chinese engineers are bad, I'm just saying a lot are bad or don't care enough about details just execution as fast and with as little effort as possible.
