Yes, and we should change an entire companies culture to make a new hire onboard slightly faster /s

the average tenure for software engineers at most companies is two years, so yes

it's not just onboarding, a newer/more junior engineer is much more likely to misunderstand something and introduce a bug if specific context is required to understand the code

In this occurrence, I couldn't measure the benefits of that specific element of culture.

It may have been silent and powerful, I'll spare you the extra comment ;)
