Thank so much for writing this. The detail, the hurt, pain, everything. It's super real and the experience is not for the feint of heart.
Please stop coding. Go find a paying customer. Whatever it takes.
Lots of the other comments echo this sentiment, and you already know this in your bones. The problem us engineers face is we tend to hate sales. Whether we're bad at it, hate the experience, or insert X reason... we avoid it like the plague. At least I do. And so we support the organization by being the best damn engineer we can. Features features features. But there are times when that isn't the answer. This is one of those.
