Why do you seem convinced I can't possibly be a software developer? Evidently your development career has given you one experience with a company that takes the task with a great deal of seriousness and I've seen that happen, but a lot of companies are not so diligent and either try to game things best they can either with like two people making git commits or an army of offshore developers that seem to quit within 6 months leaving little competency and plenty of opportunity for a bad actor to get in the door.
