I used to be a tech lead/PM on teams where we came in as an outsider and delivered code where the organization itself couldn't.

Part of that was having great programmers with great habits, sure. But a big part of that was something like "Not letting your broken organization and practices break our delivery speed"

Bad org structures and practices pull developers and teams into poorer and poorer practices, like an accretion stream getting sucked into a black hole. The org itself can take a .1 dev and turn them into a .01 dev.
