I’m a programmer but have worked as a more general engineering/management consultant and attest that this skill is valuable for more than programming. “Extracting requirements” is pretty close to “looking at the problem and figuing out what interventions (tools, systems changes, training, outsourced services, etc) would fix it”, which is pretty obviously pretty generally useful.
