In a very real sense, that's true. But...I don't know what it's doing but I know how it's doing it, so to speak. With languages in which I'm quite fluent (Haskell not so much), I can sometimes spot problems in the code of someone coming to me for help without knowing anything about the libraries, et al, because even though I "couldn't read it" in your sense I could read it in the other sense.
