Abbey Perini talks about how yes, there is a code angle to maintainable and extensible components, but it's also useful to appreciate the wider context, historical problems and the long term impact of opinions in your code.

Omg YES this is infuriating. It's back to the "You need experience" "How do I get experience?" "You get a job" "Okay well you're hiring, can I work here?" "No, you ned experience" There's gonna be a senior shortage that's gonna hit them so hard they won't know what to do.
