Yeah to some degree. I am in that 25 years of experience range. The software I write today looks much more like year 1 than year 12. The questions I ask in meetings I would have considered "silly questions" 10 years ago. Turns out there was a lot of common sense I was talked out of along the way.

Most people already know what makes sense. It's the absurdity of office culture, JR/SR titles, and perverse incentive that convinces them to walk in the exact opposite direction. Uncle Bob is the culmination of that absurdity. Codified instructions that are easily digested by the lemmings on their way to the cliff's edge.
