"from scratch" and "no prior experience" have very little in common.
Why not just say from scratch instead of no prior experience, is it to brag
"from scratch" and "no prior experience" have very little in common.
Might be intended to preemptively deflect criticism of "reinventing the wheel"/solving subproblems in a non-standard/convoluted way.
I'd expect an engineering project with "no prior experience" to take weird/experimental approaches more often compared to a "from scratch" project (where I would expect proven minimalism instead).
