Surely this is confounded as a question? It seems like it's measuring more than just the opinion of science vis-a-vis coding, but also ingroup/outgroup stuff?

It's not just a cool pun BTW. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brogrammer

"This “JS = Scheme” meme was hugely legimitizing to a horde of programmers feeling unsure of themselves in the face of grizzly C programmers who allocated their own damn memory, probably right after building their own computer out of rocks and twigs." http://journal.stuffwithstuff.com/2013/07/18/javascript-isnt-scheme/ …

To really boil it down though, just using libraries is what most coders do most of the time and it's legit good practise (for so many reasons, better tested code, etc). If you can't author your own functions though, you probably won't get a job as a programmer.

Brogrammer though want to shuttle between "knowing how to code, the basics, etc" and actually being a software developer, treating them as synonyms where it suits their sexist/elitist argument.

This is another fallacy. Knowing how to write and being a professional writer who gets paid to write are not synonyms. Many know how to write, few are paid to write in a professional setting.
