rather than compare it to the automotive world apples why not compare it to something more similar to field service like air conditioning or electricians? Oranges. this reminds me of the old joke about the difference between the doctor in the mechanic being that the doctor washes his hands after he goes to the bathroom the mechanic washes his hands before he goes to the bathroom.
Maybe the answer is a nurse to drive the mechanic?

Fact of the week
Foundling hatches are safe, anonymous drop-off points for unwanted infants, allowing parents in crisis a way to surrender a baby safely without fear of punishment, ensuring the child is rescued and cared for. The concept started in the 12th century, was abandoned in the late 19th century, then reintroduced in 1952. It has since been adopted in many countries.
