It goes into why we need design systems, software architectures, libraries at all? Because of communication and managing complexity. You give 5 developers one single set of requirements, their approach to the problem likely to be drastically different. Could their solutions be effective? Very likely to be. But that's not large projects are about, they are about continuity of the projects without locking into developers. For developers want to solve a problem quickly, you are correct - and more power to you because no one else (mostly) can understand your code. Job security FTW there. I think most of companies starting to realizing they can't keep people like you very long. You are both capable and stubborn (most likely). That's why job market is shifting towards mediumly skilled team and process oriented developers. Hope that makes sense.
