Good grief. What people? I am making up arbitrary examples 
describing common traits of most human beings, it describes 
nobody in particular and everybody in general.

I wrote machine language in my teens, not because it was 
practical, but because I wanted to master the hardware. That is a 
clear identity motif.

There is no reason to be offended by the obvious: humans are 
strongly affected by culture, identity and emotional aspects. 
Programmers included.
