Understanding requirements means talking to customers. A customer can be anyone, even other devs that consume your code/product.

“understanding requirements” is as much “wearing other hats” as having hands is “wearing other hats” for a carpenter.

coding is always the hard part, always. whenever I was on any project and we had more work than resource we never hired “people to wear other hats” - we hired people to write code, that’s it. thats the fucking job.

you ever see a leet-code-for-understanding-requirements? yea, me either…
