Diametrically opposed to that is..

At some point the "very skilled programmer" must transition from being
a skilled programmer, to being able to *enable* average-skilled
programmers to produce above-average code.

The true measure of a development manager isn't how many lines of code
s/he puts out, but how much aggregate improvement s/he contributes to
the team indirectly.

That said, I fail on that particular metric. Which is why I am (no
longer) in the business of managing developers.
