I fully agree a strong, organized professional organization for software developers would solve a lot of problems the craft faces. If we had something like the Bar Association or the Medical Board, would we have to keep implementing FizzBuzz and reversing linked lists every interview just to prove a basic level of competence?

Not, but then the "Software Developer Board" would apply those as certification tests instead.

But you'd take the exam once rather than having to do it every few years when you want to change jobs.
