I get the feeling this comes out of the divide between people treating programming like a craft, and those treating it just as a means to get something working.

Those that treat it like a craft aim to understand what they are doing, how to do things better.

Those that treat it like "just a job" or a means to an end don't want to know or learn anything beyond what is immediately required to do the task.

An example could be using "git push --force" if git push returns with errors
