I'm sure this has been said dozens of times throughout the years as we've built more and more tools of abstraction. As software gets more complicated, it's OK if not everyone fully understands every part of the stack. People specialize, and then become experts at their small scope.
Or even if they're not experts at their slice, not every company needs a 10x code wizard who understand the system up and down. Some companies just need someone lightly technical to mess with website templates or write simple scripts and services.
