Imagine you’re a worker of any kind. Some kid from university with a business degree and no experience in your job becomes team leader. They’ve learned to “lead”. Does that make them an expert in your craft?
I’m not sure what you’re getting at. By definition, an “expert” is someone with a lot of “experience”. Your hypothetical kid has “no experience”. Since we know that 1+1=2, I think we can deduce that the answer to your question is no.
The person I was responding to was equating their experience as a leader to being an expert in software development. And even if they had been a good developer 5, 10, or 15 years ago, that doesn’t make them stay an expert. Either you’re working in the field with the relevant experience, and position, or you’re not.
Your qualifications as a software developer don’t magically increase to say “far exceed the required qualifications” just because you lead a team, a division, or a company. Otherwise Satya Nadella, Bill Gates, and Jeff Bezos would be the best software developers in the world.
You made up this fantasy that somehow I don’t know what I’m talking about based on nothing other than you wanting me to be wrong so your world view isn’t challenged.
I stared out with the assumption that you were having a good faith discussion. It’s now clear that you’re a troll, tech bro, AI lover, or all of the above. At this point, I’m done with you and encourage others to be as well.

My degree is in Computer Engineering, dipshit.
