I mean what makes a good engineer that doesn't use cargo cult code? Actual deep understanding of concepts. A lot of people try to fly through the learning process without good study habits so they never really understand it. But proper study habits can be learned too. Obviously someone has to be a motivated learner though, you can't force someone to learn if they don't want to. I -do- see plenty of people without proper motivation do poorly. But anyone who wants to can.
