One does not typically return to undergraduate study after gaining a first BS degree. If you have a BS (or in my case a MS as well) in a not-directly related technical field and wish to study CS, you get a graduate degree. This often requires extensive additional coursework, in my case about 12 additional semester hours. Thanks for ranking people like me lower than someone with less education; I doubt I would enjoy working for you anyway.

I described precisely this case even before my edit and said it was an exception.

There are a lot of people coming with 4+1y or 4+2y purely CS/SE. That's who I'm talking about.

I'd quibble with the meaning of weakly related vs. not directly related, but fair enough.
