To echo your sentiment, It's a bit like measuring writers not by the books they have written, but how long they've sat in front of a keyboard.

Anecdotally, Not only is time a a poor measure of ability, those who use it as such demonstrate a lack of accomplishment. Compare those who write "N years of Language X" vs "Wrote A,B,C in Z using ...".

I find "I've used X for N years" to mean "I've done one year of X over and over and over" :-)
