Absolutely. I'm sure there are many reasons for this, but a big one i always see is attention to detail. People who really care are obsessed with getting all the details right, and hate bugginess, bad ux, and other issues typical of crappy software. Big projects with no real owner may have lots of programmers, but none of them care so much that they want to get in the really deep weeds to make the thing a truly amazing software experience.

And that is because there is always more to care about, just as true love has no end.
