Likewise, a programmer who can only code a solution when given a spec like the latter, should only be paid as much as the help desk tech, since the PO will be picking up the rest of the role.

I can get a receptionist to type "make a save button" into a jira ticket when the customer asks for it (that's more than some PO's I've had have done, some would just copy and paste the email from the customer into the ticket providing no additional context or clarification), can you get a help desk person to build the app?
