Tasks That Can Be Done with Pure HTML and CSS

Yeah, it doesn't work that way.

It takes time to meet compliance standards, and when it comes to items like color choice, often you're against client-selected requests.

I can either 1) keep pissing into the wind only to eventually be put through the grueling algorithms grind of job-searching again...

Or 2) keep firmly pressing for better standards, but still do what I'm told to do.

This is part of what a legally protected engineering title does. When you stamp something as a professional engineer, you are saying that it meets all applicable codes. That is a legal statement, and to do otherwise would be fraudulent. If you have a professional association that dictates this and has restraint of trade in place so only a member of the professional association can do it, then it's not even pushing back. It's a flat statement: "You have to do it this way or you can't have it stamped."

I'd be on board with that if it doesn't exclude non-degree holders from working in web development.
