its not just the best ones. If you remove people from the grind for 1-2 days a week, give them a small budget and enough autonomy to do what they want, most people will fix shit that bugged them for a long time.
The main problem is how micromanage-y the current development processes are. Everything has to be a ticket/user story and has to be planned and approved by some people that never even wrote a single line of code. Everything has to have some immediate business impact. I even see scrum teams measuring for team utilization now. target is 90% atm and they wonder why productivity is down.
