"real programming"

Perhaps you're doing some amazing low-level work, but it feels like you're way overestimating how much of our industry does that. A massive amount of developers show up to work every day and just stitch together frameworks and libraries.

In many ways, it feels similar to EVs. Just because EVs aren't yet, and may never be, effective to moving massive amounts of cargo in a day with minimal refueling, doesn't mean that they aren't an effective solution for the bulk of drivers who have an average commute of 40 miles a day.
