Its funny, I've been thinking about this recently, and the conclusion I came to was, People doesn't need to code actually. Coding is the process to getting desired output, which can be totally abstracted out for most common tasks. Look at ruby on rails, It hugely reduces all the mundane tasks that programmers needed to do.
If programmers care about DRY principle, they won't design yet another shopping cart.
Look at google forms, Its so easy anybody can do it without knowing to code, imagine coding a form with same complexity within the time it takes to set it up. Its not possible.
So, my point is customers people want, nine in holes in their walls, not nine inch drills.
