Your suggestion is extremely laughable and naive and reeks of elitism.

The domains where the quality of code has very high stakes do have very strict processes and have an extremely high bar.

The domains where the stakes are not high, for ex - implementing an API to download user reports, have a very low bar.

And your point about cancelling the license to code if you implement a bad API, that's like cancelling a journalist because they made a typo in their article and it went out.
