This mindset will limit your advancement, teaching and mentorship work becomes increasingly key for senior and senior+ roles.
But I suppose by the time someone has a senior title and 5+ years of experience they’re not really in the category being discussed in this article.

Yes but there aren't enough of them, and they're not being paid to teach fundamentals to fresh faced entry-level hires. We'd expect them to teach higher level things than the basics of how to program. The skill set to be able to teach and explain to a complete naif is a little different from the skill set to communicate with someone who has already been inducted into the jargon and practices of your field.
