Hi, I think perhaps you're reading into the non-exhaustive list of example alternatives to traditional developer roles more than intended. I don't see anything in my comment to suggest that "QA is dumping ground for failed devs", nor was that my intention. In fact, I wouldn't label anyone a "failed dev". Rather, the idea behind my post was to find a role that better fits that person's skill set and experience. My apologies if this was unclear.
