Sure, if you're a genius who knows how to solve every problem, can keep the entire codebase in your head, and remember every change you - or someone else on your team - has made.
I'm doing some contract work for an old employer that uses a home-built framework that I've worked on and improved extensively. I'm betting it'll take me another hour to truly catch up on the ol' codebase enough to actually write something useful. And if I have a question about something? Well, I hope my old coworker has been keeping up with things enough to remember the answers that I've forgotten.
