Does this not imply that your "way" is the "correct way"? As frustrating as teams, peers, and different stakeholders are, they make the thing we are building better. Yes, group think doesn't produce the best results but it is no worse than someone building something in solitude without outside input.

Not at all. There are many ways to get the same job done. Ideally, the best ideas would win. In my experience, however, the hierarchy always wins and creativity is punished.

In a solo dev project, outside input comes directly from stakeholders.
