I applaud your enthusiasm, and while I look forward to a future where some degree of logical reasoning and programming skills are commonplace, looking around at a world where it's rare to find a human who is literate with their own spoken and written language, I have no fear of my programming skills becoming common.
Learning a few basics of syntax is one thing, but learning to actually develop software is a skill that is not entirely common even within the subset of mathematically and logically inclined people who are currently programmers.
