Not really. Big different between programs and systems. Saying 'good at doing teh codez' is just one set of skills is nonsense. And being a structural engineer is not sufficient to build a skyscraper anyway. In the immortal words of Le Corbusier, they're machines for living in. Which is why architect is a different career from structural engineer and both get involved. Your exanple undermines your own point.
