That's because business analysts don't get to touch code because they don't know what they're doing. You give every generic Business Degree holder access to visual studio and make custom apps and suddenly 5-10 years down the road companies will be relying on a sole piece of terribly optimized, unsafe, and security prone software that hackers globally will have a wet dream over. This isn't just an "Oh developers trying to retain their jobs" rhetoric. This is a "keep power tools away from children" concept. Not saying Comp Sci degrees are terribly hard to acquire, just that there is a reason those people went in and got a Business degree and not a hard science degree. It's typically because they wanted the easy way out.
