I disagree. Programming is about whatever the particular case is about. In some cases that can be about 'working algorithms', but in other cases it can be about building a CRUD app and knowing the nuances of front-end development concerns (including, sometimes, CSS quirks and the like). I find many discussions about these issues tiresome because they feel like someone arguing that 'writing', in general, is about grammar, or vocabulary, or style, or whatnot. It's about all these things, and none of these things, depending on the context.
