Learning to program does not equate to learning to architect and evolve over many years a non-trivial system, operate it, document it, train others on it, scale it, etc. - “unmotivated” is a bit reductive. In the same way I might enjoy some DIY here and there but don’t want to and shouldn’t be trusted to build new houses, the same goes for non-trivial systems - sometimes you really do just need professionals.
That’s not to say you can’t give areas with guardrails to non-software-engineering-professionals if you can teach them git.
