Let me guess. You have never stepped in a lab.
Not necessarily. Many things are simply gatekept behind the door.
We see it happening in SWE as we speak - people from and outside the tech who had no or very little experience with programming are now starting to deliver their ideas into products without devs or very few of them. We also see this within the SWE where strong domain experts are now able to deliver ideas into code easier than ever, and by themselves, and for which they would previously need a handful of programming experts. We also see it in other way too, strong programming experts are now able to pick up other domain easier than ever.
This process is something that I believe it will (and hope so) inevitably be picked up by the pharma too so the myth about the complexity will become broken.
