The inability to detail the idea all the way down to the level were something concrete can be made from it kills it well before the lack of coding skills.

It's like what separates having an idea for a book and writting an actual book that is enjoyable to read: there is no "knowing how to code" barrier in there and yet most people can't actually pull it off when they try or it ends up shallow and uninteresting.
