> Why are people who can't code getting the CS or EE degrees?
Because neither CS nor, especially, EE are "coding" degrees.
Now, if you want to code CS (and for certain domains, EE) can help you become a much better coder, but that's not really the central focus of the degree. So they aren't irrelevant as qualifications for coding work. But neither are they, on their own, qualifications for such work.
