English term or phrase: boot
So basically, as far as developers are concerned, marketing folks are the absolute bottom of the food chain — they’re assumed to be both clueless and useless, and liars to boot.

Eu traduzi como "eles supõem ser tanto ignorantes quanto inúteis e mentirosos para começar", mas não estou certa quanto a isso. Não consegui entender o boot aqui.

Alguma sugestão??
Toda ajuda será bem-vinda!!
