>...they do not provide as much benefits as coding (learning and reputation wise). I think that's because code reviews have changed from being helpful form of preventing you from stubbing yourself on your toe to, "Why would you do this...? No0b..." kind of format. If code reviews were weighted as equally beneficial to the code and as being approached as being beneficial to the growth of the developer making the change, then I could see it having much more benefit in learning; however, that would take a dynamic change in the general culture. ...but saying that code reviews don't provide as much learning benefit is to just infer that there's nothing that can be done about that when, in fact, there is. :)
