In my opinion experienced developers are mostly pretty dumb even at top firms. Yes they are GREAT at the particular thing they have invested the most into labeling themselves but are often stuck in some tunnel vision or just do not care to learn new things. Many young developers are eager, learning multiple technologies/languages at once, work across back-end, front-end, network, dev ops..to be a successful new developer the wall is much much higher than it was for developers 20 years ago. These old guys can't do much tbh and are so slow at adapting, they don't even have excitement in meetings or anything. So boring. You can do what you want in life but don't complain if you are replaced.
