As a mgmt/analytics consultant I just want the day to end so I go back home pet my cat and play some game/watch some movie or catch up with a bunch of fuckers I call friends. And... Holds true for most of the guys I know

If absolutely all software engineers obsess over business metrics rather than technology it would be net-net great outcome for the ecosystem as well for the individual economically, socially.
I find it childish when a CTO/Architect/Prin...
This is just plain wrong. You can't force engineers to care about business metrics and they won't be good at it. Hell...
