Everyone can do their own plumbing and electrical work in their homes too. For some people it works out, for others it's still better to pay someone else to do it for them.
I don't think basic software apps have anywhere near the risk profile of electrical or plumbing work.
I'm pretty comfortable letting my mom vibecode a plant watering tracker. Not so much wiring up a distribution box.
Would you be comfortable letting your mother vibe code a budgeting app that had access to her various banking and financial service credentials?
