> How many people do you know in the industry without CS degrees? A lot of those folks came in through bootcamps, whether they cop to it or not.

People without CS degrees or degrees at all are fairly common, including at staff level and above. Many of these people have been in the industry since before bootcamps became a thing.

Previous comment showing a sample of 50 staff engineers shows only 1/50 having a non CS or CS adjacent degree and only 6 didn't show any degree. So idk if I would call that 'fairly common'.
