I've heard that claim times and times again.
Often it's from companies believing in "Best Cost IT talent" or whatever the current buzzword is on LinkedIn. Chances are, they never even worked with an SV caliber dev.
We've all seen engineers that are simply running around in circles around others. Just think of John Carmack. If any of these organizations managed to luck out by hiring someone from, let's say Apple or Google, it would most likely change their beliefs that there's no "high performance".
