Outside of HN commenters, anyway, I don't think I've encountered a dev that doesn't understand the importance of estimates and that thinks they're nothing but BS. Most make honest attempts at accurate estimation.

However, most devs I've worked with were also very aware that estimates themselves have such a large margin of error that they can be considered a bit bullshit even though they are necessary.
