Yea, I hear that. I'm content with winning the argument and truthfully, I think they will find they need to hire iOS engineers because we do more than write Swift. There are whole ecosystems of knowledge to go from a product idea, sit in meetings with many stakeholders, and implement the actual thing everyone wants. All they got here was a 1-to-1 implementation of their current app which was born of engineers working through real constraints. It says nothing of new features that have to play nice with other pillars of the company.

Shopify isn't hiring any mobile engineers.
Probably because the agents were hired first and took the job already.
That is the point of the job being literally commoditized and cannibalised, they hire less or close to 0.
Your quixotic 'vindication' means nothing and has the opposite effect.
Not sure why you are defining my vindication. Its purely rooted in native is the better solution for mobile apps. Which they are using. Not sure how that makes it the opposite.
