Re:Don’t Call Yourself a Developer If You Don’t Code by happytoexplain on Tuesday September 15, 2020 @11:24AM (#24482249)
To be clear, the issue at hand is calling yourself a developer when you are one step higher than typical on the abstraction chain (e.g. WordPress). So far, the responses to this comment have chosen to take it outside of that context, and compared it to calling yourself a doctor when you have no medical education, a Navy Seal and combat veteran when you are neither, and the president of the United States.

There is apparently no limit to how false an equivalence can become.

> calling yourself a doctor when you have no medical education

... as opposed to calling yourself a developer when you have no software education (or even actual experience)?
