>I predict that many frustrations with IT would magically disappear if IT stopped calling everyone who doesn't know how to program morons or babies.

That's already happened. Have projects magically aligned to budgets and schedules? Have we been able to fire all the programmers and replace them with business analysts yet? Have Excel sheets become maintainable?

Certainly it's a good thing if IT doesn't hold itself as superior; but that does not mean that it's not a bad thing that most business people don't have what is becoming a more and more essential skill.
