> I’ve definitely met people that were equally competent at both
Tbh this is a meaningless statement. How on earth is any sane person supposed to compare competencies?
I both describe myself as full-stack and associate with other people who do the same. There isn't a single person among us who would try to pitch ourselves as equally competent on the front end and the back end. Who would do this? Why? To what end? This simply ignores why people actually use the term "full stack": to indicate willingness to take on work, not competency.
