Coding is a good force multiplier for non-coding jobs, though; even a basic scripting knowledge can go a long ways. An administrative assistant who can compile their weekly reports with the press of a button is far more valuable than one who spends half of every Friday mucking around in a Microsoft Word template to do the same thing.
Bricks aren't powerful programmable tools that most people already work with on a daily basis.

No they aren't. Either they're making the same salary either way, or else their employer has fired them and hired someone else to push that "button" at a fraction of that salary, once it became obvious that their job could be automated.
