To keep it simple and reference a towering book you mentioned, everyone but the select few who truly lead all breakout efforts in technique are concious of the "Why". I think Ellul presents this well enough, where previously, engineering was done with purpose, socially, and with the consensus of the larger cultural ethos of wherever it emerged from. That is not the case today. Simply look around you, even those of you in engineering or the sciences, and ask your self do you know how the majority of things around you work? Would a learned priest of the 13th century have the same trouble? Would a khmer farmer have trouble using each tool in his shed, and teaching his son how to use them?
