The particular anecdote is very interesting. But you then conclude, "Software engineering is a diseased discipline." This conclusion should be removed from this post, as it is not warranted by the contents.
It doesn't really read as an inference made from the data in the post itself; it's a conclusion of the author's book-in-progress, which presumably has the warranting that you're looking for.
The conclusion doesn't directly follow from this one anecdote, but from the observation that the anecdote is typical - something like it is repeated over and over in the literature, with respect to many different claims.
