Sorry to be blunt, but how does knowing how to sell software make you good at writing it? What’s the end goal of the act of writing code supposed to be?

I didn't say selling software, I said make a profit with a software, which needs to be functional and good enough for people to spend money on it
Sorry if I misunderstood.

You used the phrase “real value” - what do you mean by that?

So my point is that someone being a real "full stack" developer that is capable of creating an app from conception to market, generating value to customers that are willing to pay for it. Someone that can understand all the lifecycle of a software in place of being a great "backend developer", "frontend developer", etc.
