Awesome Coder was blocked by an email chain, not a lack of understanding of the code. Unblocking him wasn't a technical challenge: > She talks to some people in real life, figures out what the confusion is, sorts it out. She didn't "demonstrate a deep technical understanding of the codebase". She did management work.
