I do my own front end work but most of what this bit is about is boilerplate stuff I just edit as needed.

I think I'd have missed at least half what he's asking for because front-end work is not what I focus on primarily and I didn't get to see the entire line of code.

I spend most of my time designing logic flow and writing functions to perform it. Asking me to do front end work would be a waste of my skills. I'll never be as good as someone who specializes in that, and I don't know many who do that would be as good as I at what I do.

I'm sure there are many who are better than I at what I do. I learn from them everyday, but I doubt they spend a lot of time on front end stuff. They probably do what I do, copy and paste that stuff and get to work.
