While he didn't code himself, he was very involved. From the TFA:

I'm not sure you can get credit for being involved if your involvement is looking at what others are doing and saying "Ok" - input that only matters because he's paying for it, not because he has any idea that it's actually good or correct. I don't mean to be negative because it's obviously good he's attempting it, and I encourage that, but let's be honest as to what's actually happening.
It sounds like he's acting like a product owner as well - being one of the only people that actually knows how the game works.
