If people are not writing novel code, nor learning how to, does innovation slow since LLM generated code is largely customized copy-paste, and there's nothing new to train the models on?

Lower wages with the same quality is an MBA fantasy. The old saying "you get what you pay for" applies to tech as well as any other topic.

I wonder if when one goes down, activity shifts to others, in turn pushing them over a threshold.

I recently went through most of the Spotify clients I could find on GitHub, looking for something "lean", including screen real estate.
Most of the GUI apps had something similar to the official app in the maximized window, but none had a good mini-player, something I could put in the corner of an external monitor and control most of the important functions with minimal mouse clicking, including EQ and playlist.
Interestingly this one with its Winamp mode is what I was looking for. Nostaliga is probably playing a part, but it a good UI does not have to be "modern".
I also went through a tour of TUI apps. Lots of interesting work there, but a full TUI with windows was less convenient to navigate, and some of them try to do too much. I wound up using https://github.com/hrkfdn/ncspot because it specifically does not attempt to be a character mode GUI. Almost like a ViMusic.
