@creachadair @phire I’m mostly in the second camp - but just good enough to modify, debug and integrate the outputs.
That puts me in the golden zone where it’s useful to help me crack some issues that would have otherwise taken much longer.

Thing is; I’m not full time dev, or even 25%. Sometimes I go months without coding and then boom I have to fix something or have to satisfy a new demand. I’m NOT a real dev, but there are probably more like me out there.
