It is commonly accepted that it is business people who build businesses, and technical people are replaceable and should be hired as cheaply and easy to dump as possible, and not approached seriously. Sometimes literally lowest bidder gets the job. Same thing in Russia. In almost every startup i saw here in Cy started by Russians, founders have no idea how to code. They mostly siphon off cash from someone rich and dumb enough. Naturally technical part doesn't matter all that much to them.
