Where I draw the line is those few engineers - and I've met some - who
believe that current really, really does flow from plus to minus, and
it's a *real* flow, not just some mathematical concept.

Hole flow in semiconductor devices, which represents a positive charge
current, and certainly can be from 'plus to minus,' is arguably 'real.'

I would agree with you that anyone who seriously misunderstands any of this
and claims to be a practicing electrical engineer should be viewed with a
little skepticism. :-) If you're working with numerous such individuals, it
might be time to look for other jobs...
