Not really sure I understand what you are saying.
Ops is not hard. A good dev can do it. I am a developer, not an ops person. I have written 100s of ansible scripts. I have dealt with deployments of single servers up to 100 servers across all kinds of hosts.
Your argument is "OPS PERSON CAN CODE TOO"
My argument is "DEV PERSON CAN OPS TOO"
Really labels are stupid.
