I think there are job where you very much need this mentality and then there are jobs where you don't have to bother much with the non-technical.

Maybe the later are harder to find on demand, but there are plenty there.

There are benefits and tradeoffs each way. I think the most important thing is to know what kind of person you are and what you want, and move towards finding work where you can be mostly actualized in that.
