Not all children will grow up to be programmers, but more and more will be information workers that will need to know what kind of tasks can be solved with programming.
In a previous company the requests from non-developers ranged in complexity from simple string processing to multi-year research projects that still might not bear fruit.
You wouldn't ask a mechanic to build a flying car in an afternoon, but people still ask programmers to perform such tasks.
