There is a big difference between acting as if you know something and actually knowing it. You're describing one thing, while the comment you are replying to is describing something else.

Let's consider a developer who is interested in programming and has a lot of experience. If the team is going down a path that the developer knows will lead to issues, or if the developer tries to help because the team is not as strict and it's leading to outages, that developer may be perceived negatively.

However, the developer is able to find security issues and potential bugs during code review, objectively providing significant value to the team.

This developer could be labeled as having a "rock star" attitude, while in reality, they are trying their best to ensure there are no security, performance, or outage issues.
