Good analogy. Imagine Swift writing a few ideas...guy sees land of giants, land of little people, add some pirates, etc and handing it off to some highschool kid to write! (I don't know why that's the first book to come to mind)
In my career, my most rewarding, fun, but also frustrating times are being handed problems I don't know how to solve, even moreso when it seems nobody had tried to solve it before.
Where would we be if people like Bellard just wrote general ideas, but never any code? Without ffmpeg and qemu, probably.
