I agree. When I starting working we had a manager that was formerly a SWE on our team. They retired and were replaced by a series of people over the years that, for the most part, didn't have a programming background. At first I was a little dismayed over this, but I eventually realized it doesn't usually matter. It helps for them to have tech knowledge, but like you said they do things I wouldn't care for, but need to be done.
