I feel you, I really do, I've been where you are, but I've seem metastatic automotive code bases that were non-Autosar that would make you tear your eyeballs out. So, trust me, there is _worse_ than Autosar. AUTOSAR is a pain to work with, but, at least, to their credit, once you configure the goddamn' modules they do work. You don't know how, because observability sucks. But the modules work.

I agree with your point about incremental improvements. And I agree that reducing useless options would improve the status quo.

Thanks for the sympathetic reply, but luckily I left the automotive industry a while ago, and I did it because of AUTOSAR. I honestly felt uncomfortable working on AUTOSAR projects, and I mean ethically, they were safety critical components I was working on and no one understood anything, being able to understand a system is a hard prerequisite to being able to sign off on it, and I could not work under those conditions with a clear conscious.

I will have to take your word on seeing projects worse than AUTOSAR ones, I have seen terrible non-AUTOSAR projects, but the only good projects I have ever seen in the automotive industry have been non-AUTOSAR ones.
