If there are any people reading this starting out in their career, i can't stress how important this is. Being able to write beautiful code and being able to explain it to your peers and see them take off with it and do amazing things is the single most important skill as a software engineer IMO. I would put it above any algorithm riddle, esoteric language feature, tool expertise, or anything else.
