My 2 cents: these are the types of people that actually get the job done. All good software in my experience starts thanks to overachieving human representations of Pareto's law - people that can do alone in months what a team of average-skilled developers do in years.

In this industry it's very, very easy to run in circle, keeping doing stuff over stuff without realising you are in a bikeshedding loop, you're overengineering or simply wasting time. We need people that want to just push forward and assume the responsibility of anything that breaks, otherwise I'm sure that in 30 years we'd all still be using the same stuff we've always used because it's just human nature to stick with what we know works, quirks and all.
