I've been raising issues with the phrases "non-code contributor" or "non-technical contributor" for at least a couple of years now.

And yet to this day I continue to see people of good will giving presentations and writing blog posts using that framing.

When will we learn that defining people by what they are not* is not a valid pathway to inclusion?

(* caveat because "non-technical contributors" are absolutely technical. It's a BS phrase.)
