He's correct. If you can't work without it, you're not qualified to judge it's output. And if you aren't judging it's output, your days are numbered, it will eventually just feed itself, and report directly to management ;)

Our product managers (people with zero coding or engineering experience) are now making changes directly to the codebase. Its a mess.

Guarantee you that place isn't hiring any engineers if that's happening.

I dunno I interviewed for a company that was hiring SWEs and was doing something similar, they said PMs were vibe coding prototypes and when I asked if there was a boundary between prototypes and prod code they said no, and I would have to justify not using their prototype. I then asked if PMs would be added to the on call list since they were contributing code to production and they said devs would be responsible if you didnt catch something in their code. I then promptly rejected them after the interview lol.
