Thank you for the well thought answer. I can certain pivot my image to highlight what business problems I can solve. This could also be beneficial since sooner or later some AI tool will replace most of what I do day to day. I think it will make most "bad programmers" obsolete.

Bad programmers are already pretty obsolete. My team had a very motivated but also pretty bad programmer that I always wished I could fire. When he finally left our velocity went up a lot. He was delivering negative value to the project but management liked him because he was like a model obedient student, doing allergen agile shit to the T. He unfortunately had zero feel for code and didn’t learn anything from code reviews. I always likened it to a cook with no sense of taste. You can follow a recipe but if you need to improvise anything by yourself you would be pretty lost with no value function to apply
