I think a "code plan" is the equivalent of a "business plan". Neither have much value. A working product is execution of the code plan. A working business is the execution of the business plan.
When the technical person creates the working product, they have delivered on their side of the bargain. I think the problem is that many non-technical founders think they have made the equivalent contribution by having "a plan". They haven't. They will have made the equivalent contribution when the execute the plan and make money.
