I think this is an interesting line of argument but its sort of reached its shallow depth on its 3rd exposition: it's not very complicated if I'm reading it correctly:
"Theoretically, developers could eschew jobs that don't allow them to creatively reinterpret code as they translate it."
It's a weak argument, because if you're translating even manually, it's not exactly the peak of creative self-expression.
There's plenty of rote code that we'd all be happy to automate translation of --- I used this technique with GPT 3.0 to get math code translated across languages for Google's color library.
