Don't want to get too deep into your analogy. I was addressing the "DevOps cannot code" part. To me it is a leadership failure if a DevOps team is still afraid of tackling bigger challenges (like the example given by the OP). That, of course, depends on whether DevOps teams will exist in the long run.

Have you done devops yourself? It sounds like a resounding No. Like you complained ops doesn't like to code (not a core skill for the job), ops complains that devs can't understand basic concepts of how their software runs. Is this also a failure of leadership? Is everyone supposed to know parts of everyone else's jobs?

DevOps is a methodology, not a role.
