Yes there will be a class of developer like that, but it would only be considered winning if you're satisfied with climbing some artificial institutional hierarchy.

Indeed, the job of an SE is deviating further and further from code, much like how very few people write assembly anymore.

An earlier iteration of your reply said "Is that really winning?" The answer is no. I don't think any class of SE end up a winner here.

Climbing institutional hierarchy usually comes with being rewarded with more credits that I can trade for food, and I like eating food.
