Yes, but I think there's a stage learning where you learn "this is how I work in a manner that lets me get along with others." There are a lot of ways to gain the knowledge of this stage. One part of it is working on projects that you will maintain for a while--this lets you see the cost of tech debt. Another part of this evolution comes from working with others--you learn where your code falls short, and you learn better conventions.

The right environment helps a programmer evolve through this stage.

In a similar vein, stay at home moms or dads may choose to send their child to daycare a day or two a week to learn how to interact with others. Without these learnings, life, or work, can be more challenging.
