That's the "curse of End-User Development" (akin to the "AI effect" [1]): as long as any kind of automation task is made easy enough that end users can perform it reliably, it's no longer considered a programming task. It happened to spreadsheets, retrieving records from databases through GUIs, publishing and styling blogs as you explained, or the mere possibility to copy-paste large amounts of content (clearly a memcopy loop operation, but nobody sees those as programming anymore).
