Previously, most people would say that it requires programmers to make a website. Now you're demoting producing a website to something that doesn't even require programmers, saying it's been automated for several years.
I think this proves exactly the point of the GP.
Re Re MBA guys - I don't know how many MBAs are working on something more complex than another social network, because many successful businesses recently have been quite easy to build a MVP for with not a lot of programming skills.
Examples of succesful companies with not difficult to program MVPs: AirBnB, Instagram, Twitter, Groupon.
I believe many MBAs could build something like these given some time. If we want to broaden the category from MBAs to just STEM students, I know very few STEM students at my college (which is ~97% STEM majors) who couldn't build more than a MVP for one of these sites given 2-3 months.
