I'm not coding because there are more important things to be done. For example: - I have to groom tasks and interfaces across team boundaries. - I have to review others code. - I have to help someone with their problem so they can proceed and deliver. - I have to onboard. - I have to make sure processes are working well. - I have to make sure the team works well. - and so on and on... Some programmers are much more valuable to their employer than just for the code they write. You don’t become a 10x engineer (if such thing even exist) by writing 10x more code but you can enable others and make sure things work and easily deliver multiple times more value. Good managers understand this very well.
