What you say makes sense. But if someone were to learn a little math and then proceed to tell mathematicians how to solve theorems they would be labelled a crackpot. A person who cannot enrich themselves by learning programming in order to better able communicate their ideas without tempering it with humility and awareness of the vast size of the subject has problems that "learning" to program only made more clear. Like violence and videogames. Indeed I would argue that they did not learn to program for communication or enrichment purposes. Great Insecurity and megalomania come to mind. That person in a more perfect word should not be leading you.
