>I think it's wrong to frame vibe coding as something that's done by people who don't know how to code. Those who I see effectively vibe coding things tend to be staff- and senior-level engineers, who use it to speed up implementations while focusing on architecture.

You moved the goalposts by adding the "effectively" qualifier.

I think without it, it's quite right "to frame vibe coding as something that's done by people who don't know how to code". As those are most who do it: students, junior engineers, etc.

Worse, over-reliance on it ensures they'll never really learn how to code.
