This is a great starting point. Let's not play down tradeoffs, standards, orthogonal goals, etc. Either interpretation of ‘Anyone Can Cook.’ Cooking isn't just about being great art. Neither is programming. Lets not forget that a lot of programming is making something like salesforce do something after an employee does some other thing with their account... Proverbial (and literal) CRUD. The practical requirement for this job is (1)"can program," (2)"knows how salesforce works," and (3)"can reach an understanding for what the problem is." There's a real tendency to downplay this "use case" for an education in programming, but this is a lot of what most programmers do for a living. Whether or not it's simple, it is definitely not trivial in the sense that most people do it well. In isolation, the "can program" bar is not that high.
