Maybe you've only worked with average to good devs who communicate well, like I do now, but I guarantee that in our field, we have people who can at the same time be bad to average AND bad communicators (or worse, toxic liars).

Luckily, now our worse communicator is also our most competent dev, but I've been in teams where learning basic git would be a month long challenge for half the people, and for half of those (two people, really, we were 9) communicating their difficulties, or worse, their mistakes was impossible.
