I feel like people just assume “marketers” are like these abstract entities that just autonomously generate growth. Like you just drop a Marketer on the team and the numbers start magically going up.

correct. although i believe it can work as a triad: engineer + UX/UI designer + communication. the first 2 hands on and the latter following the process and executing broadcast for awareness and community management, both within FC and on other social networks (old and new) — said this a few times, but I think Bluesky does a good job on that.
