That's bizarre. I happen to enjoy it, and while I would grant you this isn't the norm, I don't think it is exceptional either. Some people, maybe most people, can't be bothered to deal with the hassles of lower level work. Myself, I don't have to re-invent every wheel in the world, but when I had a web dev job I found I had gone a year without actually writing anything but glue. For people like me, the feeling is "what's the point?" Don't ask me why the finicky lower level stuff is any different, but for me, for some reason, it really is.
