UX is amazing.
HCI was clearly defined and this word is nearly forgotten by the modern industry.
The definition of usability was vague but it had spoken the language of numbers. It produces fear among managers and you barely find now someone who looks for a usability expert.
UX is a perfect silver bullet. There is no clear definition, you can claim you are an expert after short courses or even without wasting time to read a single book, it allows you to destroy established development processes, technical strategies and familiar interfaces by simply claiming your intervention will save the world.
The best advantage: nobody can measure the quality of your work because nobody is able to define its goals in objective measurable metrics.
