I think there is a simple equivalent in programming. A lot of programmers I know can rattle of the benefits of 3 or more frameworks. They can program in half a dozen programing languages. But they couldn't tell you the basics. They couldn't say what the difference between functional and object-oriented programing is. They couldn't tell you what a good name for a variable is (maybe they have somewhat good variable names, but they don't really know why they are good or bad). They couldn't properly define an architecture for a new project. There are basics in programing that should be known before all the programing languages, frameworks and what not. And I think from time to time everyone should try to learn more about the basics instead of a new language. From time to time think really hard why this variable should be called that. Why we need a new package for that. Why is a method built the way it is.
