Maybe another way to look at it is those less productive are 0.1x developers?
I don't know - I've been the developer that produced more than the rest of the team combined, but it's important to stay grounded. An arrogant developer is going to be resented or even hated, regardless of productivity.
I also feel it's important to mentor other team members if you are more skilled in some areas - someone who shares the fruits of their knowledge and experience is more valuable to the rest of the team.
