Etymology
'incompetence-focused' originates from the combination of 'incompetence' and 'focused', where 'incompetence' comes from Latin 'incompetentia', meaning 'lack of ability', and 'focused' from Latin 'focus', meaning 'hearth' or 'center'.
'incompetence' changed from the Latin word 'incompetentia' and eventually became the modern English word 'incompetence'.
Initially, 'incompetence' meant 'lack of ability', and this meaning has largely remained the same in modern usage.
