Ughh. I really wish topics like this didn't exist. Every situation is different.

I haven't touched code in 15 years, but I understand web technologies, constraints, possibilities, etc. People love our product and UI. I own the product roadmap and UI direction - have since the beginning. I write the specs, I do the wireframes, I refine UI, etc.

Why would I learn to code? What impact does it have on my business? I have 10 engineers who are extraordinary.

Every time I see this argument, I cringe.
