ADHD at the strategic level, but hyper-focus at the tactical level. Because when you're a professional developer (as I'd imagine the majority of people writing non-core open source packages are) why doesn't "reimplementing {wheel} in {new language/framework/architecture}" sound more interesting than "bug fixes".
Nobody likes fixing someone else's bugs.
