Agreed, with the only caveat being, there is a chance that the current favorable market conditions for programmers disappears. There might come a day where companies believe that the value of slapping a few potentially buggy libraries together is not worth $xxx,xxx per year. I for one kind of hope that companies return to buying/contracting well-defined finish products with small external studios rather than throwing money at W2 developers like us. I think the software quality will be higher, and the risk of our jobs being outsourced lower, wherher rightfully so or not.
