But that’s the point - it’s just a promise. I have a similar career as the top comment, and turns out that Low code approaches only work when people who understand code use them. Be that Python or sql, real use cases are not the toy examples shown in all typical introductions to these tools.

That said, if this thing is customizable enough, a good data engineer can prepare canned steps that fit the general structure of the customer data process and it may have its place.

I imagine the use-case for low-code tools is when your ratio of "business experts" heavily outweighs programmers, and the cost of inefficient dev processes/tech debt is less than the cost of waiting to onboard people with a coding background.
