Yes. Your team members care about what they do, and think it's important. You don't think it's important and you view them as replaceable. Your intent is quite clear.

1. You're wrong. You have no idea the value I place on both my direct reports and other engineers at my current and previous companies.

2. I should have looked at your comment history before my first response. I really would like to assume good intent. I don't think I'm going to find it.

1. True, the only information I have about your perspective is what you've shared here. 2. I'm not sure to what you're referring?

When a manager comes on here and says "these workers think they're important but they're just shuffling numbers around" that deserves to be called out.
