Indeed. Writing software is akin to drawing the design of the elevator, not building an individual copy of the elevator. Each elevator is equivalent to one instance of the software deployed to run in one place. The same design/code is used to build/create multiple instances. So when we write new software to solve a new problem, we are designing something new and unique - not another blueprint for the same elevator.
