Thanks, but that's not really the question. I'm trying to find out how many non-techies are supported by each engineer, and my hypothesis is that the number is increasing. My hypothesis for US companies is that the number of non-techies supported by each US citizen engineer is going up at an even greater rate. Your comment is based on the assumption that engineers cannot do any of the non-technical tasks a company has, and as an English major who is also an engineer, I think that's a false conception being perpetuated by people outside of engineering.
