The ability to anticipate problems before they go into production or find the most efficient way to build and deploy software packages in a complex infrastructure -- these are real advantages in the creation of software today

That's part of my job as a developer. If you just write code, then you're doing it wrong.

I've seen a lot of QEs and DevOps trying to become developers. None of them succeeded.

Bad organization?

The truth is that today’s DevOps and QE people could step in as a developer, if necessary. But it would be a waste of their unique skills and temperaments.

The bollocks they could.

I'm a QE that regularly steps in as developer when needed. Bollocks to you sir.

I don't doubt that you do... really... The idea however that there is a swathe of QEs and DevOps ready to swoop in replace developers simply is not the case.
