What I think fails to grasp is that this is correct but only to a point. Sure someone can learn to code without doing math, but as things scale, this becomes really important.
How do you calculate distance between two points? Math. How do you timezone calculations? Math. How do you know what data structure is going to be small and fast enough to not overload a server and still get the job done? Math. How do you determine if two populations are statically different? Math. These are becoming everyday things. We've moved beyond the mid 90s where having a web page and writing some JavaScript was well enough for most companies.
