Having more developers, commits and code doesn't mean better software! In general CS course I took in Uni over 20 years ago, one learns about data structure and state of an application with multiple threads. It is something 'web developer' lacks as web was originally meant to be a document based. I am not saying developers can't pick that up during their development career, it is just that the bar for being a developer has being simnifically lowered in the last few years. It turned more into a buzz word now days.

It is something 'web developer' lacks as web was originally meant to be a document based. This is unrelated but it's something that annoys me. Even in Tim Berners-Lee's original memo proposing the web he stated "Hypertext allows documents to be linked into "live" data so that every time the link is followed, the information is retrieved. If one sacrifices portability, it is possible so make following a link fire up a special application, so that diagnostic programs, for example, could be linked directly into the maintenance guide." The idea that the web could be about more than static documents was there right from the beginning.
