This method requires a lot less skill, you just need to read it and run it. Reading is much easier than writing!

For many types of code writing it is much easier than reading it unfortunately.
Reading to understand all the subtext and side-effects can be harder than writing, sure. But it won't stop people trying this approach and hammering out code full of those types of subtle bugs.
Human developers will be more focused on this type of system integration and diagnostics work. There will be more focus on reading and understanding than the actual writing. It's a bit like working with contractors.
