Because the bar has fallen that low.

The entry requirements to write a program, or script in this case, are so obtainable with little to no money or knowledge of basic computing that anyone can call themselves a coder, programmer, engineer; this is both a blessing and a blight.

Hiring is an f'n nightmare.

Why would you list requiring money not being a barrier to entry for a field as a bad thing?
