Those 3 categories fall into the broader category of "enthusiastic programmers" which aren't the majority from my experience. Most people want to leave the office knowing that they have made some progress with their assigned work, knowing that they haven't screwed anything generally and being able to sleep at night. The thing about being "enthusiastic" is that certain cultures and organizations wouldn't at all recognise it and an otherwise enthusiastic programmer can easily become a drudge when the business requirements are just some company-specific internal rules changing all the time.
