LOL, yeah right. Thats like saying a surgeon is just the gut who makes the
incisions and ties some knots in string.
Having done all aspects of development through from writing user specs down
to programming, I can assure that the actual programming is by far the hardest
task, takes the most time and takes the most experience. Any eejit can knock
up a flow chart in powerpoint and do a high level functional spec as
barely qualified managers prove on a daily basis.
