Honestly this sounds like a Luddite mindset (and I mean that descriptively, not to be insulting). This mindset holds us back.

You can imagine the artisans who made shirts saying the exact same thing as the first textile factories became operational.

Humans have been coders in the sense we mean for a matter of decades at most - a blip in our existence. We’re capable of far more, and this is yet another task we should cast into the machine of automation and let physical laws do the work for us.

We’re capable of manipulating the universe into doing our bidding, including making rocks we’ve converted into silicones think on our behalf. Making shirts and making code: we’re capable of so much more.
