Then I say this is because you’re working with morons who themselves don’t know any programming. They probably went to Unity because of its ease, realized that it means nothing in practice and now they want you to work more than you bargained for.
I would never ask a composer to program in their job. I know what I’m doing and even if I didn’t, programming stays firmly in my territory. With sound design it’s more of a gray area, but I don’t expect it to be something the programmer of the team can’t do.
