This gives me the impression it is trying to convey that the front-end hides a thinly veiled mess from the user — showing only what the developer’s want users to see — not what it is actually like to program in each role. It appears to me this is meant to be the same scene from two perspectives, not two different situations altogether.

It is not my intention to be annoying. I apologise in advance to anyone that sees my analysis as sucking the fun out of something intended to be lighthearted and saying anything a waste of time.
