I think "low level" here means "low skill level", not the programming definition [0]

0 - low-level programming language is a programming language that provides little or no abstraction from a computer's instruction set architecture

I would like to see some concrete examples of what is meant by low skill level "programmer" work. In my opinion, programmer, developer and engineer mean the same thing. Is there a market for "Hello, world" that I am not aware of?

Simple CRUD websites maybe, adding simple things to e.g. wordpress deployments.

I think of “an Excel workbook” as being an actual workable example of the pattern.

I think that gives a lot of solace that it’s not going to collapse the market for devs.
