That's just what I said. You don't forget how to think programmatically. But
many people do forget the exact syntax, the exact method calls, etc, of the
programming languages they used to have mastered.

Look, I didn't make this up. I experienced it myself, and have talked about
it with many other people — they've all agreed. If this wasn't the case for
you folks that are objecting, well, then great — lucky you. But that doesn't
mean you represent a trend. Fact is, most developers aren't great
developers. Most designers aren't great designers. It's extremely rare to
find someone who is indeed great at both.
