I absolutely agree with you!
Web development is all about perpetual learning, especially when starting out, and depending on the path you take there are different technologies that are cardinal for you to learn to be effective.

My point is, taking Docker as a good example, that it's without a doubt a powerful and important tool for web developers - but it's wrong and hurtful to label the developers who aren't familiar with it as non-developers. Every developer should sit down and learn Docker eventually, but we as a community should also respect those who haven't reached this point in their journey yet.
