Agree but a lot of companies, particularly larger ones, don't have this sort of culture. They are filled with people whos sense of worth(at the company at least) is defined by a narrow job title and set of skills. Their worldview requires them to categorize everyone else on a narrow set of attributes as well:
"Oh, you're a programmer so you must not be good at soft-skills and communicating with the business."
"Ah, you have soft-skills and you also program? You must not actually be very good at programming so you should stop that and just become a PM."
"Ah, they are PMs/Sales/Whatever so SQL is too hard for them and they can't be expected to learn git or markdown; that's for nerds."
This leads to cringy, insulting sentiments like:
> The most valuable thing you can be doing is writing code
Ughh.
