Kind of agree, but when he's making wrong technical decisions it's bad... Depends on the role of the tech lead in the company, but if he makes tech decision he should to have strong technical skills, otherwise it's becoming a mess.

I've dealt with really good tech lead as a person, but not very good programmer and it's very very frustrating. He doesn't have to be the best, but I think he should at least be strong in tech.

Well if they was good person, for me it means that they are not intimidate to ask help from the team or other people with experience, able to facilitate others work, able to admit limit of their knowledge and let people work. If it wasn't the case - the "lead" part (from "tech lead") is missing.

Totally agree, the "lead" part was missing, or at least a part of the "lead" part ahah.
