In defence of the jack-of-all-trades, if everybody is a cog in the machine, nobody sees the overview of how the cogs could connect.
For what it’s worth, here's an overview of some cogs made by a j-o-a-t, for whom software developer is just a sub-role, within understanding complex climate system.

Isn't that exactly the role of an architect? The point is exactly that not everyone is a cog, not everyone is exchangable and equivalent to everybody else.
