That sounds very much like the promise of low-code: use our pre-fab components to quickly assemble your software apps. You'll be able to this with lower skilled people, and no longer be limited by the lack skilled software engineers...

Offhand thought is the advantage to using lower skilled labor probably benefits Bone Structure more than it benefits the builder. Two choices pay bone structure a premium for custom cut metal framing or pay a premium for skilled framers.

Note unskilled tends to come with a lot of other negatives.
