But your point is only valid if those who do learn with time are either rare (so do not make a dent in the general trend) or they somehow also do not learn much after a certain age, both of which I find deeply problematic.
Programmers by the nature of the profession must be good at learning over time... and I find it difficult to believe someone who is good at learning when at 20, will be bad at learning when at 40...
> some get more out of one year's worth of learning than others get in 10.
Sure, but they probably continue learning the year after?? And the year after??? Or they too, stop learning (or are just too rare)?
