no code systems let you hire cheap replaceable folk instead of highly paid technical folk.

Does it? Anecdotally and based on observation, people who know their way around, for example, PowerBI and can use it solve problems earn the same as people who know their way around Python or JavaScript. And people who really understand PowerBI and actually use it to its full potential can charge every bit as much as talented programmers.

People who “really understand PowerBI and actually use it to it's full potential” are, on top of other skills, talented programmers proficient in a niche functional language, so it's not really surprising that they can charge every bit as much as talented programmers.

(Of course, not sure what this says about “no code” platforms except that the label is usually a lie.)
