Great article. Lots of similarities to other terms floating around like forward deployed engineer and full stack builder. This is obvious if you ask ChatGPT to list all the professions over the years which have been combined and subsumed during technical innovation.

I think the most obvious recent event would have been the personal computer. How many office jobs that existed pre-computer were combined once they became software?

Filing clerks, switchboard operators, darkroom technicians etc.
