Not really. We want people to solve the problem, not invent something that needs maintenance. In some cases, from scratch is important, but for most it's not.
No we don't want competent people showboating and pissing cash up the wall reinventing wheels that have a high maintenance cost because it's fun.
We hire engineers.
An analogy: would you hire the electrical engineer who knocks up an ASIC for every task or the one who designs in a COTS part for a predictable unit cost and manufacturing lead time?
