The why and what of any business capability is also a translation. From market needs and signals to requirements and features.

The „how“ too. I’m not sure I really understand the point they are getting at. The act of translation isn’t passive, there is a lot of decision making that comes with it. If we could delegate it cleanly to LLMs, and they would reliably „just translate“ I’m pretty sure I wouldn’t have any problem with that technology. But that’s not how things happen, instead you give a goal, and the system will make you believe everything is done the way you want. Until you actually verify and notice it took quite a lot of decisions that don’t align with your actual goal.
