I basically agree, but it depends on the definition of programming. For example, I consider "using Excel" programming above a certain level of proficiency. Assuming your therapist, dance instructor, baker, farmer, mother, coach, and musician are actually small business owners, they would certainly benefit from mastering spreadsheets.

Many mothers probably regularly use a calculator for household budgeting. Excel can do that better. However for most mothers it is not worth the effort to learn it, because their calculator is good enough. Providing future mothers with good excel skills would improve their lifes in my opinion.
