In the 8 bit days, Woz designed the hardware and wrote the firmware. Jobs made sales. In the 16 bit days, Jobs specified design constraints, such as form factor and noise limits which techies solved. Jobs would have been involved in technical decisions in a managerial capacity only. There is a creative process in marketing and suchlike, but Jobs wasn't coding or designing components. That's the issue under discussion. Is it worthwhile to have a non-programmer as a co-founder? Yes, if they have very complimentary skills.
