>Then you will never be employed, because that describes virtually every software project at a for-profit company.

I have had 8 years doing software dev (at a for-profit company) most of them as software development director in command of a 15+ people team, thus, I reaffirm what I said: Newbies should be trained first, and only afterwards included in the projects, and that's what I made sure happened on the team, under my command.

They deserve to be trained first, in an environment where they can make mistakes freely until they feel confident.
