Tremendous article, as always. Thanks for all you do.

"Graciously accept the resignations of PMs who decide managing products is not in their wheelhouse."

I can understand the devs, tech leads etc who are part of frameworkism. But what role do these sorts of PMs even currently play, given that, in some sense, their role should be framework-agnostic...?

Do I just not have a proper conception of what a PM does? Or did the mass layoffs get the wrong folks...?

@nickchomey Being a rubber stamp is easy! And there are always more meetings to go to and decks to construct and offsites to lead and bug backlogs to triage. Those things *could* be part of managing a product, but it's also possible to do all of them and not manage anything affirmatively.
