    I think I see what you are saying but that’s a terrible metaphor. Is it an old saying I didn’t know? I don’t think arsonist is a paying job; there are waaaaayyy more opportunities to be an architect than to professionally illegally set buildings on fire.

      There are only 37,000 members of the Army Corp of Engineers and there are 452,000 members of the US Army in total!

      Clearly that means there are more than 10x as many arsonists as architects!
