AH, that was the missing link!
PS: Sorry, I realize that you are not a developer, but you once mentioned that you had literally dozens of "Linux Foo Certificates"
Nononono! Linux certificates only "SuSE Certified Linux Trainer". And at work, I specialized in networking and security. See here .
I know a little bit about programming and I have recently written stuff and even some libraries for Arduino, but I have zero experience with complex development, i.e. everything that would involve even the use of make. I never wrote any x86-program which was more complicated to make than a single call of gcc or a single click on "compile/run" in an IDE.
