"(they are only comfortable bandaiding and throwing a few routines in existing code)" In my experience it actually takes a better programmer to refactor existing code than to start from scratch, because anyone can type 'git init' and the temptation to do so is high. Truly experienced programmers can read and understand other people's code, and more than just bandaiding it, can fix it where it goes wrong.
