Well rounded tradespeople build better structures, are much more diverse in their skill base. Microcredentialed workers result in construction companies needing to hire way more subcontractors and split the jobs into an increasing number of independent sections with very little understanding or accountability to who comes after them. It results in poorly built and more expensive buildings. This is not what we need to drive the recovery.
