So the 'less good' developers provide the business value whilst the 'better' devs get promotions and more money?
I'd stay there for one year (less looks bad on a CV) get the 'promotions' and then move.

“So the 'less good' developers provide the business value whilst the 'better' devs get promotions and more money?“
That’s true in a lot of companies. Reliable people are kept in their positions to keep things going. Others get to do the new stuff and if that works out they look like superstars.
The “better” devs work on creating the things that will provide business value in the future and that require more skill/expertise to create.
Writing code for new products is easier than adding features to or making security updates to 'legacy' products without destroying them.
