And that's the secret sauce, the core of the full stack dev - or what I would consider - your basic programmer. Basic meaning someone who understands that the real deal is figuring out the problem and that languages and frameworks are tools, not basic as someone unintelligent or incapable.
The quality to adapt to a tool means that one knows what the problem is and that's the quality of someone who's adept at solving problems.
Such people are scarce, that's the sad truth.
Many other devs go down the hard route - memorize everything, throw the buzz at the project, hope for the best, quit when sh*t hits the fan, lie to yourself that CV filled with many jobs in short time span means you're good and desirable.
