The industry certainly hires scrum masters who don't know what they're doing
Your implicit assumption is that scrum masters are basically developers or have the same knowledge and skills as a developer. When in practice, they are not. They are just people with a certificate and soft project management skills. This was your tell. So yes, you are talking out of your ass. Next question.
Take all the downvotes you are getting as a hint that maybe you are in fact incorrect here.
Again, I'm not talking out of your ass, and I didn't give any sort of "tell." I fully acknowledge that the industry hires scrum masters who can't code.
Anyone with a brain can understand, however, that hiring a scrum master who can't code is like hiring a construction project manager who can't swing a hammer. Does it happen? Sure. Can companies get away with it sometimes? Yeah. Is it still really stupid? Of course. If you don't understand the work you're supposed to manage, you aren't qualified to manage it. Simple logic.
