What about programmers

- for whom the code is a data structure?

- who formulate their data structures in a way (e.g. in a very powerful type system) such that all the data structures are code?

- who invent a completely novel way of thinking about computer programs such that in this paradigm both code and data structures are just trivial special cases of some mind-blowing concept ζ of which there exist other special cases that are useful to write powerful programs, but these special cases are completely alien from anything that could be called "code" or "data (structures)", i.e. these programmers don't think/worry about code or data structures, but about ζ?
