The whole question is about nitpicking though.

If somebody comes to you with a picture of a desired webpage and list of http calls to make for each button on that picture then you're a programmer.

Similar to how if I come to you with say a paragraph in English and I want one in French that makes you a translator not an author.

Sure, not everybody who writes code has this narrow responsibility. The ones that do are programmers though in the eyes of BLS.
