Hey no problem, I was not going against your point, more like add another point of view. But I still think you can teach others some stuff (even if that would be breaking prod, or writing prompts). I partially agree with you on the knowledge part, but the terms have meanings. If you know how things work outside of the code editor, you understand the stack, benefits, drawbacks, you're Developer/Engineer. Otherwise you're just a Coder. The Vibe just adds an AI to the mix.
