Also consider that the vast majority of the problems these non-programmers are trying to solve are not things "IT" is interested in solving.

Many of the no-code apps I see getting built by non-programmers at my place of employment are things that IT has outright rejected because developers are a limited resource and there are bigger fish to fry.

But that doesn't mean these problems aren't impacting teams in real ways. Some horrible workflow for a small department that functions by manually juggling 3 spreadsheets may not rise to the level of an IT provided solution being created, but with the proper tooling the non-programmers can create a better solution than what currently exists.
