Big distinction we’re not talking about is: coding just to stay sharp, or coding to actually merge to production?
Strong no from me on (2). Production coding takes tiime and focus and would eat into manager’s management work.
On the other hand, managers at all levels should actively engage with the output of their org. For the direct manager of a development team, that means periodically running the build, maybe coding on weekends (which I do) to explore ideas and prototypes, etc.
