> You do realize that making software by developer for his wife means for random business is hiring a third party dev to build custom software?

No, this is not true. There are so many non-technical users of Microsoft Access that run their won businesses without hiring anyone. A friend of mine had a business with an yearly turnover shy of $3M (which is small, alright) and it was running wired spreadsheets and google forms. 20 people. He never ever bought any software, and existed for more than 10 years, until his wife (yes his waifu) decided to divorce and bring the company down.

Business Architecture is not so much about writing the software, sorry, we as IT professionals would love to think it is, but this is a super weak bias.

Almost every SMB I interact with sounds like this company. Was it founded more than 10 years ago? Probably holding the ship together with spreadsheets and email.

So true, we devs are so stuck in our own bubble
